Munson Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Well i have an old game called "War And Peace". Which seems to run on XP service pack 2, but one of the auto updates i got from Microsoft after Service pack 2 has stopped my game from running. When i try to open the game it will start and just go to black screen or just not start at all.P.S. The makers of the game has shut down so their is no chance of them fixing it.
Thunderbolt 2864 Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Did you try to reinstall the game? See if that works.
Munson Posted August 27, 2006 Author Posted August 27, 2006 Many times and on about 5 different computer and it only works on my 2 computers which no longer have an internet connection, so they dont get auto updates for XP. And both of them are to slow to play it porperly.
Thunderbolt 2864 Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 Did you try updating your video card drivers? See if that works. If not, then sorry I'm out of ideas.
gamehead200 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Have you tried playing around with the Compatibility settings in the Properties window of the executable file?
bilemke Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Have you tried playing around with the Compatibility settings in the Properties window of the executable file? Like gamehead200 said.. Try telling it to run as Windows 2000..
