Torque not running...

by Shawn Simas · in Torque Game Engine · 06/18/2005 (7:50 am) · 4 replies

Just reinstalled windows and now my torque doesn't run right.

I get the console window up, but it just sits there at a black screen.
Log file isn't even made. Any ideas?

(Win XP Pro, VS.Net)

Make sure you download the latest video drivers for your graphics card. That should fix the problem.

Shouldn't halt so early as to not write the log, if it's a video driver issue.. should it?

Not sure what else it could be then. The only other thing that it might be is if he hasn't updated Win Xp with all the updates that have come out since its release. I know certain software will not function if Win Xp isn't updated.

What I would suggest doing is making sure everything is the same as it was before you reinstalled windows. Make sure you have all the current drivers (video drivers, win xp updates, etc.) and then try it and see what happens.

I've just encounterd the same problem (black screen, no log file made) after 2 years of running TGE daily without a problem. I haven't reinstalled windows or made any other system changes. Did you even find a solution?
