Help With Blue Screen

[Badguy]

When I start the game all I get is a blue
screen. I have uninstalled reinstalled.
Redownloaded and installed. The game has
worked great till the last update.

My Sys: AMDK6-2 450
256mb PC100 ram
V3 2K
Win 98SE
Latest drivers
DX7a
Any help would be greatly apreciated.

In your AH directory, look for video.cfg and delete it.  Then restart AH.  When it asks you to setup the video settings, be sure to choose 16 bit color.  The V3 does not support 32 bit color.  It sounds like this is your problem.

Whenever I read about that blue screen I can almost guarantee the problem is trying to run a Voodoo card at 32bit color.  Delete or modify video.cfg back to 16bit and you will be fine.
