Is it just me, or does it seems all the people having difficulties are using one form of an ATI card or another ? 'things that make you go , hmmmm . . .'

Did you install the version of DirectX that came on the game cd ? If so, what is the model number, and manufactuer of your ATI card ?

Here are some steps for everyone which I myself perform before thinking the worst about any program I install on my own system. These may not work for every situation, but are step in the right direction for a healthy system. 1) make sure your anti-virus program is up to date, and scan your...

Let me start by saying that I have had a simular ( but unrelated specificly ) problem myself. The cause for this was a defective stick of ram, and was very hard to troubleshoot, but for now lets assume this isnt the case. Sounds like that peticular DLL may be corupted, or possibly infected...
