Problems launching Ghost Recon [RESOLVED] - Page 2

simcalnet · 02-02-2007, 06:30 AM

I've played GRAW before on my older system which was an Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz with 2GB Ram. I had no problem playing it. Then I built my new computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4 GHz. with 2GB Ram. I've looked at some discussion forums and some people where having problems getting their game to play with the dual core processors. Could it be that the game is having a problem with the two cores?

I then uninstalled my drivers for my X-Fi soundcard and installed the latest drivers and wow, it worked. The game looks beautiful on my new Intel Core 2 Duo with a Geforce 7900 GT OC 512MB. Thanks a lot everyone.

Glad to hear it's working now. Enjoy your game.

Good to hear, i thought it would be the sound drivers fault.

Happy Gaming!!!

Maybe you can help me with the other game. I thought when Ghost Recon worked I assumed that my other game would but it doesn't. This game I get two error messages. For those not familiar with the game here's the website. http://www.riddickgame.com/us/. First I get the game's splash screen. Then The first error I get is, "This application requires graphics driver support for Open GL 1.3 or higher." Then I click on OK. The second error message that pops up is, "Runtime Error! Program:...Studios\RiddickEFBB\System\Win32_X86_SSE2\SbzEngine.exe." Then I click on OK and the game goes back to my desktop.

There are some suggestions made on the VU forums Here.
They even note the same problem you are having so i would run through those first.

If none of those work download Rivatuner, and force OpenGL 1.5 or 1.3 support in the drivers tab, see if the game runs then.

It worked. I installed the patch and that was all it was. Hey, you're great. Thanks a million. I really appreciate your help. I love to play games and I had just built a new computer and these two great games weren't working. Now they do and I greatly appreciate your help. The games look great on my new system. Thanks again.

Not a problem, your thanks makes it all worthwhile.
Enjoy your new system, and your games.
