Turok General Protection Fault

[madhog6]

Re: http://www.techsupportforum.com/f59/...or-259323.html

I bought Turok today and have a similar error message, not as long though. I try to run game, first thing to pop up is a message saying:

General protection fault!

History Address = 0x454070 (filename not found)

I have tried typing the exact phrase, but only a few results in google all in foreign languages. Looked around for about and hour, then found this site, with the closest related problem I could find (as in same type of error, message box, game never even opening.). Please help!

I also notice that requirements were for radeon x1300 or better except x1500. my computer says that I have radeon x1300/x1500. I'm not sure which one it is.

Download GPU-Z (http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/) and tell us your video card.
Make sure your antivirus is not blocking the game.
Try reinstalling the game with Revo Uninstaller (www.revouninstaller.com)

Is this game cracked/burned/downloaded/priated?

[madhog6]

I tried reinstallings my drivers and the game, firewall isn't blocking it. disk is brand new because, as I said in my last post, I bought it. for $27.10 as a matter of fact.

Is this the 2008 game?

[-WOLF-]

I don't think your video card can handle the game.

[Lord Sirian]

If it is the 2008 game you also need more RAM.

[McNinja]

Lord Surian and 5niper Wolf are right, the won't run very nicely but right now I just want you to get it running.

Update your Microsoft Runtime C++
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Install display driver
-Uninstall driver using driver sweeper
http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/
Boot into safe mode by tapping f8 and choosing boot into safe mode
install driver
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...7&lang=English
restart.

You can also try tapping F10 or F1 to get into safe mode.

[McNinja]

It depends on your motherboard, with mine it is F10 to get into safe mode.
