Game crashes with multi-monitor setup

Post by rjantzi »

I have a laptop with two external monitors. Whenever I try to start EiA's by clicking Play from the startup menu, a small DOS window opens, then I get a blue screen saying something went wrong and my computer restarts. I'm patched up to the current version and the compatibility & admin settings correct are in the exe properties but this has been the case since I bought the game. The only way I can run the game is if I physically disconnect the two external monitors and run with just my laptop screen. Ideally, I would like to run this game on one of the external monitors as they're larger then the laptop screen but I understand this is an older game and there may be limitations. Is there anyway I can make this work with my external monitors attached? I've attached a DxDiag file for review.

Sorry, I have no clue about dealing with multi-monitor issues. I suggest you contact Matrix Games directly for technical support or try the Unofficial Tech Support forum at https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... hp?f=10143 Good luck!
