I would be helpful if you could post your system specs, that way we can get to a speedy remedy.

Add /n parameter to the bc3k.bat or bc3k3dfx.bat file to bypass the intro. Or, you can disable it from CONFIG.

As for crashing to desktop. The FAQ shows you how to change the shortcut so that when it does crash, the DOS box remains on the screen with the appropriate message.

If it is crashing on startup, these are the only possibilties - all of which are covered in the FAQ.

  1. Improper installation. Used longfilenames in install folder name.

  2. Video card.

  3. Using the wrong shortcut. eg, using BC3K3DFX instead of BC3K while not owning a Voodoo card.

  4. Having a video card that does not support VESA 2.0 specs -or- using Sci-Tech Display Doctor when your card does support VESA 2.0 specs.

  5. Not running the Sound Setup program after install - or selecting improper sound config settings therein.
