Hello,

I hope you could help me because I'd like very much to start playing it.

1. Dowloaded yesterday from Battlefront. During installation I read something about "101".

2. Intel Core 2 6600 2.4 GHz 2.4 GHz.

3. Nvidia 8800 GTX 768 Mb, Forceware 162.22 (before 158.24).

4. Available memory 1534 Mb (2 Gb RAM 800 MHz). 400 Gb SATA 2 HD.

5. VISTA 64 ULTIMATE, Direct X 10.

6. The game after installed and lisenced is just not working and is inicializing the sistem showing a blue screen. In the blue screen is writen something about Windows protection and memory management problem. I've downloaded and reinstalled with uninstalling the lisence too.

Hi,

I'm taking a lot of flak here... So:

1. CD-ROM 1.00, patched up with 1.01, then uninstalled and now doesn't work at all.

2. Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60 GHz x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9

3. ATI Radeon 9600 PRO Family driver 6.14.10.6462 and ATI Radeon 9600 Series secondary 6.14.10.6378

4. Hard drive 149 Gb, free space 80 Gb, 1,50 Gb RAM

5. Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition 5.1.2600 Service Pack: 2.0

6. Bought the CD-ROM version, worked ok but didn't ask for e-license. The framerate was awfully slow and there was some flickering with the terrain features (buildings turned red and yellow, trees changed colour depending on the angle of view), and the adjustments didn't help much. Then I "patched" up with this 1.01 version and got the already famous 92% crash no matter what I tried.

I uninstalled the whole game to be able to play with the earlier version, but the system won't let me install it anymore. I get the report "the setup files are corrupt, please obtain a new copy of the product". This happens always no matter what I do. I bet it's because of that e-licence? Couldn't find any help from other forums. Now what should I do to get back in the fields of fire?

BTW What psu do use to power it? smile.gif

2. Intel Core2 Duo CPU, T7700 @ 2.40 GHz
3. Intel Mobile 965 Express
4. 3.5 GBytes RAM
5. Windows XP
6. When I start the application I don't geht any fonts in the buttons. I do <Alt>-<Tab> to change app and come back to CMSF and then the fonts are there but I have some flickering. Some of the graphics dissapear when I get the mouse over one of the buttons. Similar behaviour in all other menus. The game works fine. Just a sluggish mouse.

Tried changing to one processor - only helped on the initial screen - the game still freezes up as soon as i try to start a battle and the mouse leaves a trail behind and lags.

4. 2GB RAM
5. Vista Business 32bit
6. Experiencing very low FPS, even when reducing to low resolutions, turning off aliasing, setting priority and affinity in task manager. If looking straight down the FPS is ok, but when looking across the battlefield FPS becomes VERY slow. Also the mouse cursor is very jumpy and hard to use. I haven't measured the FPS, but it's what I'd consider unplayable.

4 NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT Driver 93.71
5 Windows XP Media Center Edition SP2 (build 2600)

Game itself runs perfectly smoothly, no probs, BUT I've got the sluggish mouse and keyboard. Tried changing priorities in Processes as suggested in another thread, but it makes no difference - and there's no process I can find for my mouse and keyboard (Microsoft Wireless 2000).
In the early, smaller battles, it wasn't too big a problem, but now I'm four battles into the campaign, attacking the airfield, and the mouse and keyboard response is so sluggish its unplayable.

5. Windows XP home. Updated

I never get error messages it just stops responding. It seems to lock up more often when I am zoomed in and a bad guy dies, or I hit the mouse button.

Have AMD's dual core optimization running.
Also having Antializing and vert sync turned off made the graphics better. With them on it doesnt want to render the ground graphics(bushes and trenches) more then maybe 20 yards, off it renders the ground 400 yards or so easily.

[handihoc]

Interesting point, at least from my point of view, is that I can run SF with both monitors active, whereas in TOW I can only run the game with a single monitor. There's no performance differential between single or dual monitor setup in SF, which is great as I can have the manual open for reference.

Fabulous game performance, but still bugged with the slow mouse/keyboard. Minimal improvement by setting system properties to Background Services rather than Performance, but it remains very slow on big battles.

[Smaragdadler]

Problem:
Sometimes Low FPS. Game runs to slow for really playing (but not all the time, sometimes it goes really smooth for some seconds). mouse moving is a pain. Installed MS fix/ switched off core 1/ set all option to off/low, but no change.

System:
CMSF BF download version 1.1
Windows XP Home Edition 5.1.2600 Sevice Pack 2 Bulid 2600
Intel Pentium(D) 2xCPU 2.8 GHz [x86 Family 15 Model 4 Stepping 4]with 2GB RAM
Sapphire RADEON X800, driver 8.383.0.0 / date 6/13/07

Additional info:
Just want to report, that when I zoom-in view the mouse lag and slugish view goes away at my system. And it goes really smooth, settings in option set to on/high.

[Jarc]

Thanks in advance and regards,

Jarc

I am getting an OpenGL error when I try to run the game. The game won't even launch, just gives the OpenGL error message and fails to launch.
"Could not intitialize OpenGL graphics. Please update your OpenGL drivers."
I have the latest drivers available for my card and computer.

Please let me know what I can do to fix this problem.

[Pandur]

I have the latest drivers available for my card and computer. really!?

Video Driver: Dell 7.15.10.9746 gladius, with all reaspect whats that for crap!? you have a nvidia card and have some "factory" dell drivers for it!?

go get a Nvidia or NGO one...than you openGL thingy should work ;)

[rune]

Guys and gals,

I am NOT checking this thread, please post in a seoarate thread, I do NOT have the time to keep going over the same threads over and over.

Appreciate it!

Rune

[Pandur]

rune, i hope yo noticed cavtroop´s thread where i posted in the end, if not i do an independent on but i have just a minor crash problem ;)

[gladius21]

Pandur I have tried the latest Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 drivers with the same result as the Dell Approved driver. The regular Nvidia Geforce driver won't even install on my computer.

The Dell drivers are Nvidia drivers they have just been modified to work on Dell computers with the Geforce Go cards. Believe me I would rather not have to use Dell drivers if I wasn't forced too by Dell.

[Pandur]

uff, sorry than. i dont knew that dell just lets you use "their" drivers...
never heared of that here.

are you sure there is no way to fix that!? i mean google around, there must be a possibility to get "normal" drivers on a dell machine...many ppl would like that, i think, so google could help find those!?

anyways, good luck

I bought the CMSF from Amazon UK, and had problems loading the CD into my PC.
The auto play don’t work (this has been a problem with Vista), so I got into the disk and double click on the Setup software. I did have the display on screen and click on install, and that’s it. My disk drive (I have got 2 DVD drives and both of them are ok) after 20 minutes start to get warm with the constant spinning.

Can any one help? Shall I send back the CD if its faulty to Amazon or is it a compatibility problem?

I got TOW and had no problems with it at all.

My PC specs are as follows
Retail from Amazon (Paradox version)
INTEL® Core 2 Duo E6600 (2 X 2.40GHz)
Memory (RAM) 2048 MB CORSAIR DDR2 (2x1GB)
Graphic Card 8800GTS
Microsoft VISTA
