My game boots me

[Guest LordTeret]

Hi!

I have been having trouble getting BC to work after the intro. I have searched the FAQ, and all the messages, and although I have seen quite a few posts close to my trouble, what they did to resolve the trouble has not worked for me.

I have:

AMD K6/2 333mhz

Voodoo 3/2000 PCI

128 Meg ram

I am using Windows 95, BC 3000 version 2.09, have the latest drivers for the Voodoo card, and direct-x 7.

I have 619k free dos memory.

This is what I get at the dos box after running the 3dfx version:

DOS/4GW Professional error (2001): exception 0Dh (general protection fault) at 1

Thanks for any help!

Try those provided in the download section. Put the one for your card in the game directory.

Btw., do you experience the same stability problems in Software Mode, too? Please check and report back.

Note: as usual, if you changed memory settings or the like, be sure to delete the file setup.cfg, and start a completely new game.

I tried d/ling the V3 driver that's provided on the file section here, it does make it a bit further, now when I launch it kicks me out.

As far as software mode, I get random crashes quite often, and I end up having to save about every 30 seconds.

This is a great game though, so I wont give up!

Install from scratch. Then use the V3 driver. Tweak your memory.
