I can't go on

[CelticOrigin]

Hi!

It's been a long time since I played Dune 2000. I wanted to play it again, so I installed the game. I'm using Windows XP Professional. I've got the following problem: The games works fine, everything runs well. But after I finished the first mission, I can't go on. On the map where you pick the next level I always may choose the first level. After completing the level I'm only able to choose the first level again. I hope you know how I mean it.

Did anyone of you have this problem before? How does it occur? What can I do?

Thx for help.

errr, i have no idea. So you finish the first level, and then? Don't you get new territory? Or don't you go to the territory map at all?

A friend had the same problem. Is the disk you have an original or a copy from the original?

In my case it was a copied disk, we simply made another copy from my original and reinstalled. This allowed him to progress past the first mission. This fix might be a fluke but it worked for us!

sounds like a demo version. . or a corrupt game. .. ???

[CelticOrigin]

Well I have an original CD and the problem is, that I cannot choose the next territory. One could say, that the first level repeats itself.

Do you have sufficient NTFS right to the directory where Dune2000 is install ?

And have you tried to reinstall it and patch the game ?

[CelticOrigin]

What do you mean with "sufficient NTFS right"? I didn't reinstall it, maybe that works. But I've patched the game already.

This usually happens when you have a copied version of the game. Are you sure this is a legitimate copy?

[CelticOrigin]

I've reinstalled the game now and somehow it works. I don't know why it didn't do it before. But thanks for your several hints.

having just bought the game from amazon as i had it years ago, i installed it and got the same problem- couldn't go on after the first level- the game just went back to the first mission version of the map.

have tried installing it on both my computers (xp and win98) and reinstalling it but i still get the same problem. has anyone found a fix for this problem yet?

Try re-installing the game then apply the no CD patch/crack so the program no longer has to read from the disk.  You can find this patch from shy site.
