ok i have my d-top res at 1024*768 and at 16bit

i went into the game turned everything to low (res was at 640*480)

and turned all of the "advanced options off as well"

Still it just froze and i had to reboot again..

With the Direct X thing is it seriouse?

Do i have to reinstall it again or something?

No there's no need to reinstall directx. If it can't find the setup parameters, don't worry. Nothing wrong with it.

Mafiah, try checking the suggestions on this page. They deal with lockups.

I swear the direct X at microsoft website is dodgy...

i got it and it just installs it ... but thats it .. it copys files acroos and then gives up or something... it doesnt even reboot ur PC..

uh anyways yeah i got it reinstalled (took like 20 sec for some reason)

on the DirectX diagnostic it still says Direct X thingy not found..

Like I said earlier, do not worry. And the reason it won't change anything is because it already was installed (and tehrefore didn't need to change anything).

OK i went to that website.

Mmm...well what can I say, some of the stuff there i already done / or just did...

Um..what else... and at the end it says put in REM at the end of RUN in ur windows ini.... i dont even have RUN in windows ini.. ;D ;D it .. must be my imagination playing tricks on me or something now..

P.S. I've updated my AGP drivers as well...didn't help much

still got into the game loaded the Training mision then it loaded

went flickery and it got back to desctop that time..

thanks god it didn't restart at least :O

Edit: I took down that IRQ thing that i had there bfr..

i must be too tired ... i clicked on the wrong thing in the System Info.

and it gave me all that stuff about Video Card Sharing the IRQ with like 10 diff things..

but then i realised i was looking at the Conflicts/Sharing Tab..

uh uh :- :- :-

Lol no i dont have IRQ conflicts i was just too tired to think straight..

and got some stuff mixed up. But no IRQ problems that assured.

I have nfi about what it is..

might get a new VideoCard Soon see if that fixes it..or

Ok people thanks for all of your help.

Yesterday my motherboard just STUFED up for no apparent reason.

(MY ASUS A7V266-E) so i got a new one Epox 8K5A2+,

and that seems to solve all of the problems with all of the games

(well so far i played emperor 3 times and for like 2 hrs each time and it went alright)

After all the problem was in the hardware part of the computer. (The actuall part of the motherboard which got wasted was the AGP slot... who knows why .... sure got me there..)

Oh well... thanks anyways ppls
