OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Game won't start up after re-install

Swimmer · 04-10-2007, 01:08 AM

I had a recent motherboard issue, which led to me to decide to replace it. After getting the hardware swapped out, everything up and running, stabilized, etc., I re-installed OOTP.

It ran through the install just fine, but when I double click the icon to start the game, it briefly gives my the "working" cursor, and then quits loading. If you watch the process in Task Manager, you can see the program load for a split second and then vanish. No other symptoms. I've uninstalled the new install, and re-installed, same thing.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love 'em.

System Specs:
Asus Striker Extreme Motherboard
Intel Core Duo Quad Core Extreme
4 GB Corsair DDR2/800 RAM
Twin nVidia 8800GTX Video, 101.41 Drivers
Onboard RealTek Audio
Vista Ultimate x64
Plenty of room on a 750 Gb System Disk

Thanks
