 |
|
Hi,
I just upgraded my computer and installed CC5 but when I try to run the game all I get is a black screen... :no1
All I upgraded is my motherboard and memory, I still run on win xp...it used to work fine on this computer before the upgrade....
Please, HELP!
Thanks... |

| Hmm, I've only got one suggestion and I don't know if it'll work, but have you tried running the .exe with Win.95/98 compatibility? |

Hold CTRL when launching the game...then disable videos vie the game options menu.
Also...do a forum search for "CCStarter" Utility.
Good luck! |

You need the CCStarter Utility to cure that.
Or you can manually disable directdraw when playing CC5. |

Disable directdraw and enable Win98 compatibility mode with the CCStarter Util (click the options boxes)...if that doesn't work...you're screwed  |

| The latest directx and latest video drivers works best. |
