Title: AH doesn't run on my computer HELP PLEASE.
Post by: gabbys on January 26, 2000, 06:17:00 AM

My system has the following

P200 MMX
64mb Ram
6mb VoodoRush 3D Card

I downloaded and installed AH v4.9.  When I go to run the program I am asked for the resolution, I systematically went through all of them.  The monitor turns to a white background and nothing happens.

Can anyone help me out?

Ok, go to your Aces High folder, to the Settings folder, and delete video.cfg.  Now run AH again and be sure to choose a low resolution to start, and only 16 bit color.

HT, I would reccomend a simple batch file or something similar and a shortcut in future distributions that will automate this process.  A "Reconfigure AH Video" shortcut that will delete video.cfg and run the video setup again would help users get things running and should be simple to implement.
