HellfiG Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Hi, My my game (w:et) doesn't want to start. Open GL runs=> grey screen=> immediately an error from windows telling me that there is a error in ET.exe and it need to get shutdown... I tried to reinstall my old driver, but this isn't an option => my pc can't find my old driver-version anymore. Other games/flash works perfectly with this new driver. But ET is a pain in the ass.. So can someone help me pls? Otherwise I can't play anymore and this sucks... :'( Hell Quote

f0reseen Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 you can also try to run it as an administrator(right click on et) Quote
Justice Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 you can also try to run it as an administrator(right click on et) yeah maybe ur using vista or windows 7, running et as administrator should work, just right click in et icon and click run as administrator Quote

HellfiG Posted January 27, 2011 Author Posted January 27, 2011 (edited) yeah maybe ur using vista or windows 7, running et as administrator should work, just right click in et icon and click run as administrator Nope, I'm not using one of those two OS. I'm using an old one: Windows XP Professional Running et as administrator doesn't work either, I already tried that. is nvidia? i was getting same error last driver 260.00 WHQL now have 266.58 WHQL and im not getting any error. try starting by original shortcut, if u r using xfire stop it. Nope, that's not it. I have Radeon 9600 TX @ Second remark: I always shutdown X-fire when playing ET. Edited January 27, 2011 by HellfiG Quote
HellfiG Posted January 27, 2011 Author Posted January 27, 2011 Hmmm maybe this: http://fearless-assassins.com/tutorials/article/68-how-to-fix-et-exe/ Nope, this isn't the problem. Why not? I'll explain with the wrong words, but understandable words: My game is working but it crashes. Why? Because Windows is recieving a fatal-error. Why can't you track down the fatal-error? Because the report you get from the error is written in a code that I can't read (+ I can't get a log from the error). You can compare the code with Assembly Language. Quote
