I have yesterday, after a long time of not playing close combat 4, installed the game, but if I want to start the game I get the error
"unable to get format on stream", does anyone knows how to fix this problem.
I have windows xp installed, but close combat 5 is running without any problem on xp.
You have two choices, either disable your videos in the game options, or download a Codec pack that includes the older codecs. In their infinite wisdom, Micro$oft didn't include them with XP.
