TGE don't start at winXP anymore...
by Outline Interactive · in Torque Game Engine · 07/26/2004 (6:33 am) · 11 replies
When I try to start the tge in my PC an error message appear and the engine crashes.

My system are:
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 1,7Ghz
RAM: 1GB
OS: Windows XP
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8X - Driver: 5.2.1.6
DirectX9
I'm using torque in another computer (P4 1,6, WinXP, GeForce4) and works fine.
Any help?
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying the versions 1.2.0, 1.2.1 and HEAD, but all returns the same error.

Man, that dialog box is messing with my head. I really want to click it. Can you run other OpenGL applications OK on your PC?

If you click on "Repetir" (Repeat), the error display again. If you click on "Cacelar" (Cancel), all torque's windows closes.
Thanks.

Well... torque demo don't work too... but no error messages, just crash. I don't have other apps in OpenGL (do you reccomend one?).If you click on "Repetir" (Repeat), the error display again. If you click on "Cacelar" (Cancel), all torque's windows closes.
Thanks.

Are you using the graphics driver from the NVidia site or from the Windowsupdate download?

I'm using the NVidia Driver. This machine was formated recently.

I would suggest getting a copy of an FPS and running it under GL mode. Any Quake game will work to test this, as well as Half-life. Or you can go to NeHe and get one of their tutorial binaries (just google for nehe).

I'll try to run Quake or Half-life and return the results. I'm updating the windows too.Thanks.
