Just excellent... : / - I can bet my life that I run through GCW's search options typing Temple of Elemental Evil to every available slot, finding nothing... oh well.

Glad it's sorted out now, thanks to you Rincewind.

Well now... that was interesting. I installed the file following all standard procedures and the instructions, but when I try to launch my game, it shows a black screen for a while, after which it returns back to Windows.

...?

Stop using refresh rate fixing programs and use DirectX override feature to fix all your problems!

Hi, glad 2 b onboard...

Anywayz, i already downloaded the 'replacement' .EXE file a while ago. Now i tried it, no dice. I started browsing for any sollutions and found this forum...

I already tried everything with the refreshrate and stuff, but it just doesnt work. My directx is overridden with 60 herz, screen and GFX card config'd to 60 herz, even edited the cfgfile to see if something changed, everything is 60 herz, but i still get a few flashy screenz, and after 2 or 3 secs it just kicks me back to desktop... Could it b i forgot something?

Does it work without any crack and with the original cd ? We have to make sure it's a CRACk problem and not a game problem...

Athoz 19-10-2003 13:01

Yip
 
The game runs fine with the original .EXE file... I

When i copy the cracked .EXE over it (backupped the original ofcourse :)), it flashes for a few times, and after 2 secs my desktop is back on :(

Well, forget about the refresh override and whatever. If the original works and the crack doesn't, there can be a number of causes. Crack could be made for another language version (even UK/US releases can differ), or for another version (is there a patch out yet ?), or it simply cannot deal with your Windows installation. I can't suggest more than trying different cracks (if they ever get made), or use Alcohol120% instead.

Cheers
 
Cheers, i'll have a got @ it... tnx 4 the help :D

Athoz 20-10-2003 09:09

Damn
 
Nope still nothing... I tried it all, but cant get any further than the flashy screens. Sigh, back to beeing a discjocky then:/

If someone had the same problem after setting everything to 60 hz and got it solved somehow, i would appreciate it if they could explain to me how they did it...

Tnx in advance
