Cold Fear - Official NoCD :)

[BarryB]

Seems the Safedisc copy protection (or game code) on this game has caused some people to not be able to launch the game, so DarkWorks released a Safedisc free EXE for all you having this problem. Probably why people are bitching the Hoodlum release is bad

If you go to 3DGamers:

http://www.3dgamers.com/dlselect/games/coldfear/coldfear_retail_alt.zip.html

And download the file coldfear_retail_alt.zip from one of the mirror sites and replace the existing EXE with it (Unzip it first you n00b's) you won't need your DVD in the drive again to play!

NO, this is NOT AN APRIL FOOL!

no way because of the refresh rate "out of range" , but thx any way.

If you getting that message it's either your graphics card, drivers, monitor or the settings for one of them is higher than it should be. It's not the game itself!

I run the game in 1024x768 @ 100Hz on a GeForce 3 Ti200 64mb using 76.10 drivers and a Flatron 795FT 17" Monitor, no problems at all.

I ve test it on my geforce 6800, on 17"LG, 17"CTX and 19"Hp with all the posibility of the refrech rate and on geforce Ti4200 so, but same problem, when i start the game the sceen become black, only sound can be heard.

  ATI® Radeon® 8500/9000/X series

Also, have you:
1. Installed a Monitor inf file so windows knows what refresh rates/resolutions your monitor can run.
2. DirectX 9.0c installed.
3. Drivers at least 71.84 (official)
4. System/video not overclocked.

Is this your only game that does not run?
