(apologies about the lack of any info on the first posting - damn tab key) OK: Immediately on opening Dune2000, screen goes black, no music or sound, a fair bit of HDD activity for a few mins, but this then stops... Windows still runs, but Dune2K is a dead duck, Task Manager won't close it, it just stays there until I restart the machine. I'm using WinXP Pro SP1a Reasonable Spec machine (it's an oldie, but the hardware is all pretty standard stuff) Latest Graphics drivers, latest DirectX Version (9). Have tried every possible combination of -f and -g command line switches (no explanation of what they actually do, so I'm just trying them blindly) - tried every Windows compat. mode possible along with this. Software manual refers to forcing 640x480 in a special Windows 95 Config application, but this does no exist in either install folder, or the CD - can't find any .ini/.cfg file entries that relate to resolution or graphics options... Any ideas before I scream and give up? Have a dxdiag.txt too if you really want to trawl through it... Cheers[attachment archived by Gobalopper]
