Ut2004 Problem

[Rip The Jacker]

A friend of mine downloaded UT2004 (Deviance), and he is having problems. He cracked it and everything, and when he opens it, it shows the splash screen, and then he gets that stupid XP error:

The one that says "Blah blah has made an error and will be closed. You could send a report of this error to MS." Choices: Send, or Don't Send.

Anyone have any ideas?

Tried re-installing from scratch after a reg clean?

Tut Tut Rip im ashamed, im sure that you should know that the specs of the pc are important, and so are the gfx card drivers.

I noticed that Ut2003 wouldnt play on the win xp drivers, becuase i was to lazy to get the nvidia ones for my card.

Corrupted download?
Dodgy drivers like Peerzy said?
Try uninstalling UT2003 if he has that installed?
Tried a reinstall?

EDIT: By the way that crappy WinXP error thing just means there was an error, click the details button and copy that here, it'll give us more information to what the problem is.

I just stole all of this from a site, but I'm gonna take credit for it ;) .



This may make your friend feel better: http://server6.uploadit.org/files/Baxton-uttshirst.jpg



Also try another crack, the one he has probably doesn't work.





I love taking credit for shit I don't do :D .



EDIT: I'm quite sure it's his crack, in fact, I'm postive.

maybe a clean install? if not try dl ing it from a different source : ie: m(irc)

:lol:

Yes, you are postive. Problem fixed, he says thanks. :D

[CadeLaguana]

No problem dude. Glad I can still be of some help to people ;) .



Now I must ride on into the sunset, and maybe return here in another few months.
