Not Working For Me

Recommended Posts

Just downloaded and installed the English version of BS.

 

My problem is that whenever I run the desktop shortcut for BS, my screen goes blank for a couple of seconds then the monitor goes to sleep!!! I can hear what I presume to be the GUI music. I can only regain control by performing a reboot.

 

This is as far as I have been able to get...still don't know where I have to insert the activation code!

 

I am running XP SP2 on a Core 2 6600 @2.4 with 2 GB Ram and an X1950 of which I have updated to the latest driver being 8-12_xp32_dd_72271

 

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

 

TIA

Thanks for the quick replies.

 

Groove, I changed the desktop to 1024x768 this got me in and working :thumbs:

 

And sorry no, there was no crash file, though I guess this is a good thing!

 

Nate, when I got to the options page, I noticed the res was set at the next setting above what my monitor is capable of, maximum display of my monitor/card is 1680x1050 in game it was set at 1900x????

 

I have tried changing my sektop res back to 1680x1050 after I set this in game, still having problems, however, I can get it to run at 1024x768 so thats cool with me

 

Again guys, thanks for the help.

 

It's going to be a loooong learning curve ;)
