I am having a problem loading the torque products on my computer. all they do is act like they are loading and load into the background but they never load a window. i try to load it again and it tells me that i already have a version running. can anyone help me with this problem?

I've had this problem too. Usually, you either need to update your video drivers or get a new video card all together. What are your system specs?

>>"i had it on before and it ran fin but when i updated to new version it wont run"<<

You updated Torque? From what version? I made a game using 1.2 or 1.1, I can't remember which. Now, when I try running it in 1.4, it gives me the finger and just drops to the background, much like yours. Deleting old preferences, and dsos might help, but I'm looking at what others are doing as well. I'll post again soon...

*EDIT* Sorry, forgot to ask about OS and DX version, how are you sitting on those?

I think it was 1.2 that i had before but i have since formated my drive anyway so no files would have been left.yeah thats what it does to me, just drops into background.

Make sure your DirectX and nVidia driver versions are up to date. Also, check your console.log for any errors or hang-ups you might be getting.

No thanks needed yet, glad to help out though. Based on what your console.log is saying, there is probably a real simple fix. Keep us updated
