OT: Swat 4 issue

[fairwarning1912]

every time i load swat 4 without shutting down zone alarm, avg and spy bot i get the following error message below, when i do shut all three down and run the game, i can only enter the traing and first two missions in career mode before i encounter this error. I have deleted the .ini file as instructed and im currently running the game using the SWAT 4 v1.0 [ENGLISH] Fixed EXE from reloaded.

im running: amd 2500+ Barton, 512ddr 400 3200 dual channel ram, windows xp sp2 updated, nvidia geforece 3 ti 200 128mb (Version: 71.89 Release Date: April 14, 2005 WHQL Certified)

I have no idea how to get this game to run properly, any help?

Hi,
I too had the Black screen problem, All i did in the end (After being told about all kinds of possible problems it wasn't , Like not enough memory or Direct X having to be re-installed), i told my Norton Internet Security (2005) firewall to allow the Swat4 exe file to dial out (On the main window in NIS2005, left click on personal firewall, and the the silver configure button, then the second tab (programs) and select the swat 4 executable and allow always.

This will enable you to run your Norton firewall and Swat 4 together!

Hope it works 4 U!!!

You can do it like that however i to have swat 4 installed alongside norton's virus/internet security and if you dont want it to connect to internet each and every time you run the game choose block always (as i have) and i run the single player campaign no probs. (obviously when i want to go online with swat4 i will have to allow it to connect . I wont do this until i have compleated the S/P missions though as i like to be able to hold my own online and not look like an ass
