I'm having trouble running the game...

[eggi4792]

The game was running absolutely fine while i was playing the tutorial (i had just installed the game) but when i got to the "naval battle" part it stopped running a few seconds into it. I then started the game again and tried the "land battle" part of the tutorial and it did exactly the same thing! I am very confused about what's happening and wandered if anyone had any ideas about what to do...

thanks, eggi4792 :confused:

You posted this in both the 1602 and the 1701 section, which game are you needing help with?

[eggi4792]

the 1602 game, sorry, my bad! :rolleyes:

Try to reduce the hardware acceleration of your sound and graphic cards to zero. If you are not sure how to do that, look here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303032/EN-US/ (Methods 4 and 7, but make sure to move the slider to the outer left and not two notches to the left of Full)

Cheers for the advice. :go: I've just realised that the same problems also happen in game, when I am fighting naval or land battles, it's getting really annoying now :bash: but i'll try your idea and see if it works.

Thanks again! :biggrin:

Hi RoadRunner, i have done the hardware accelleration method that you advised, but do i need to turn the sound accelleration right down to zero aswell or was it just the video accelleration? :scratch:

1. Why don't you simply try?

2. If setting video acceleration to zero doesn't work, setting sound acceleration to zero as well might help.

:gogo: Everything is working fine now, thanks everyone for the help. :cheers:
And by the way Sir_Henry, that was what i was asking RoadRunner about, he suggested it to me earlier.

So... happy sailing! :cheers:
