ltmauler6 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I got a new laptop for christmas. I downloaded the program from the atari site again and loaded it. However it will not run at all. I was wondering if there was a patch, or fix that I need. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xandarb Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 So. First of all, please post your DxDiag and logfile!! This will help us help you! "Support read first!" Thread by Stan. Here you can find information about DxDiag and Logfile and how to find them.How does the crash look? Is it instant blackscreen or do you get into the main menu before crashing? Please describe this.

ltmauler6 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 The log file does not exit. no Quadriga in the local. The game does not even load.DxDiag.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xandarb Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Okay. Well, you could try to set the resolution to 800x600. Do this through the configuration file. Find the lines and edit them to:<var name="r_xres" value="800" /><var name="r_yres" value="600" />the second thing that you should check is whether you have any bad codecs installed. If I don't remember wrong, programs like Nokia PC suite, Samsung studio something, K-lite codec-pack might cause this kind of problems too.

ltmauler6 Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 I think I found the log file, I ran a windows compat tool and got it the bring the activation screen up. I activated it and it worked. However it was fragmented and slow, so I tried to change the graffics and now the games won't start again. A black screen comes up and then goes away and the game never loads.logfile.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Open the config file (em4.cfg) and find the line that says<var name="r_xres" value="1280" /><var name="r_yres" value="1024" />Change the value for X to 1024 and the value for Y to 768. Save and close the Config file. The game should now work.You might have to save the file to your desktop and then copy and paste the file back to its original location.
