Ootp & Xp

Hell Atlantic · 12-26-2002, 08:12 PM

I am able to open my league folder, but as soon as i click on anything i get an error. i have XP, 2.40 Ghz processor, 120 gig harddrive, 512 RAM, GeoForce4 video card. this is a new PC as you can tell, my old rig was much worse (and i used Win '98) and i had no problem running the game. what can i do?

i have a feeling i may have to turn off the graphics acceleration, and if so, how do i do that?

thanks in advance for all the help i will surely receive.

How did you transfer the files to the new PC? If it was via CD then all of the league files are currently "read-only" and need to be changed to "archive" in the properties. Select all the files, right click and select properties then unselect "read-only" and select "archive".

actually, i just redownloaded the game and retyped my order id, so i have the game on 2 PC's now (it's just not working on the one i use).

i chose to redownload cuz this PC is killer, coupled with the broadband, it probably would have taken longer to tranfer on cd.

i'm going to reinstall the game and see what happens. in the meantime if you have any other ideas i'd appreciate it.

did you transfer your old league from your old computer to your new computer? Or are you starting from scratch? If you transfered your league from the one computer to the other computer, how did you do it?
