Are you telling me now that you have installed the game on a different machine running Win 7 and it doesn't work?yes I tried win 7 & 8, I tried changing the display options also. nothing worked. in all cases the game craps out.
We don't delete the Cmd Ops Game directory in case you have created your own data content. Feel free to delete it after you uninstall. There is also one other thing you can do and that is to clear your registries. These store your preferences - ie where a dialog is located on the screen - that sort of thing. They should be perfectly safe but feel free to clear them too. Are you familiar with using RegEdit?That's why I asked how I could make sure I deleted all the old files in an uninstall -- so that the reinstall is completely new.
sometimes I have several browser screens open, though I have turned off all the screens on occasion too.No what I meant was computer monitors. I see from the DXDiag that you have one monitor when you compiled that report. I am trying to ascertain if at one time you had two monitors attached to your machine. We did have an issue where if you had two and then turned one off it had problems managing the dialogs that had been positioned onto the now turned off monitor. I do believe I have fixed that issue but I'm just trying to rule that out as a possibility.
I don't think so but I am not ruling that out. It is by and large best to get rid of everything and start from scratch. So delete the Cmd Ops Game directory and all its content.I need to do something to go back in time like 30 hours to when it worked okay no problems. Also reinstalling from online was no help.
Could there be any files from an uninstall that remained that could be giving me problems or is that a waste of time to also delete old files?
It may be a coincidence. But it could be our culprit. We have no Bluetooth connectivity in our program but we do rely on the sound drivers. Can you uninstall the speaker drivers or revert the sound settings to what you had before and then see if that makes a difference.also one thing I recall doing was changing the speaker settings, trying to make the sound from the blue tooth. Everything went downhill after that but maybe that is coincidence.
Wonderful Nicholas. You have made my day! Now there is a lesson here for you. I know it's frustrating when things go wrong but don't be so quick and adamant that the problem lies with our software and not your system. Anyway it's all ended well. Enjoy the game.Okay we are good to go! It was the speaker settings. I reverted to the old sound settings and game launched!
