I can't play BC
« on: March 22, 2009, 10:03:20 AM »
 :( :( :(

Heres how it happened:

Comp crashed. Went blue screen and saying the error was (something like):

atiduag: "numbers"

So I turned my computer off and left it for a bit. Turn it on again. Try playing BC. ITS NOT WORKING! Windows Task Manager says its running and my comp goes super slow. So I turn off BC and things are back to normal.

Ideas?

Edit: More Info:

I have some pictures showing BC being weird in Windows Task Manager. I've turned it off and turned it on again. I've restarted my computer. But it still doesn't work.

Edit 2: My MP version of BC (unmodded except for KM 1.0) works.

Try deleting your options.cfg

So the deletion of options.cfg fixed it?
