[b41] game hangs on startup, black screen
Posted: Tue Jul 03, 2012 11:03 pm
Hi, just trying to install this on my old laptop and it's being very stubborn about working.
My hardware is a bit old, dual core intel 32-bit. ATI-Mobility 1800 (dedicated VRAM). Windows Vista.
When i try to boot the game the initial loading bar gets to somewhere between 65 and 88%, changes every time. If i leave it for about 5-10 minutes i see a black screen with specs of graphics here and there, and a "generating level" bar that sits in the middle and will not move no matter how long i leave it.
Game doesn't seem to be hogging resources, but i do have to force a shutdown to close it.
Anyone else have this problem or have any clues that might get me to the bottom of this? I'm stumped.
