medal of honor expantionpacks crashes

[noid]

hello and thank you for letting me join the forums,as you all probably can see this is my first post here,so hello again all.

now i got some questions i hope you guys can help out with,as my mohaa games are starting to get old i decided a while back that i would make a backup of em as i love the games and dont wanna ruin them,and use nocd cracks.
this worked out just great until i one day decided to upgrade my os from winxp home to winxp pro.
i have installed the games and patched them and applied the nocd cracks to the directory as i did before,but i only get mohaa to play as it did before?now both expantionpacks crashes when i try to load them,weird thing is that they worked out just great before the uppgrade to winxp pro?
i use the same nocd cracks as before and the same patches,even tried uninstalling the games several times but it still dont work,all i get it error with exe file,and something about may be a hardware conflict

what drives me mad is that it worked out before,is there anyone who has any idea hat is goin on,thanks so much for you time

Hi noid

I use XP Pro too, and it happened the same thing. I checked a couple of times and I notticed I had to change my Nvidia VideoCard settings

So my advise to you is to try to change the settings too and try new drivers

Good luck

...i have installed the games and patched them and applied the nocd cracks to the directory as i did before...Are the games working with your new system, when you use your original cds without the NoCD cracks?

hey guys i think i found the problem,yea everything worked fine with originals,but i tried rolling back my brand new drivers yesterday and put on some old ones for my ati card,hell it all worked smoothly from there.
dam to think that a driver can do that is incredible,lol but very frustrating

thanks for takin the time to read my post and answering,have a good day and peace out for now

The reason why is this..

When you upgraded from Home to Pro, during the install XP installs microsofts driver for nvidia cards/ati cards..

So no good opengl support, so a reinstall of drivers is needed.
