Dune2000 doesnt start on win 8.1 - dune.dat error

[Tiandor]

Hi all together,

 

hopefully one of you can help me with getting dune2000 running on my windows 8.1 system. I downloaded and installed Dune2000 gruntmod version 1.6.1.9. Whenever i click the start campaign button i get an error concerning dune.dat . "Runtime error dune.dat Application couldnt be started correctly 0xc0000022 click ok to close"

 

I tried to force direct draw emulation - because i read this in different topics. No result.

I also uninstalled and downloaded again to reinstall - same error like before.

 

Searching the forum and using google i couldnt find any solution.

 

Please help :-)

Are you sure you are logged in as an administrator?

Hi FunyFr3sh - well I choose "run as administrator" and problem still persists. Account is of type administrator as well.

 

*noticed that i accidentally posted in standard dune 2000 topic. If a boardadmin could please shift this thread into the support-section I ld be grateful.*

It is not a error related to the game, the error code "0xc0000022" shows a lot of results on google. Some say it is related to permissions to a certain .dll file while others claim it has something to do with a virus on your pc

Tried google on the error myself and fixed some registry garbage and went for gmer, hijackthis and kasperky tdss rootkit killer to check if there is something wrong. No results :(

Also checked administrator write permissions on the exe file - everything is ok.

 

Its only dune2000 which doesnt start. Everything else works perfect. Strange ...
