WarCraft III won't start
I recently tried to play WarCraft III and my system and it would lock up
when trying to start it. I found this on there website http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=...t%20the%20game and that is my problem is I'm running win2000 on and AMD CPU and an Nvidia videocard. I have also tried running it under win98SE and winXP and get the same problem. I have upgraded to the latest video and sound card drivers and the problem still exists. I have also tried using earlier video drivers and still no luck. Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Eric |

Eric More details of your system please, including chipset drivers and version numbers. FTR, I have no problem with W3, Win2K and AMD + GeForce, which means little but it can work. |

Thank you for your replies here is some more infor
I'm running Win2k Sp3, on a Tyapn Tiger MPX S2466 MPX mother board which has the AMD 760 MPX chipset on it with two AMD 1900+ MP processors. Another game that exhibits similar symptoms is Impossible Creatures. However I have tried StarCraft and that works fine on my system for what its worth. |
