Error starting GGWAW

[wb5iod]

[:(] Install(s) were "Success", but each time I start WAW I get the following message: "Fatal Error - File GUI/Unitprod.bmp not loaded". The file IS installed (C:\Matrix Games\Gary Grigsby's World at War\dat\art\gui\unitprod.bmp). It can also be viewed with Windows Picture Viewer. OS is WinXP Pro with SP2. Hardware: Sony PCG-FX290 laptop; Intel 1.0 Ghz CPU; 512 Mem; on-board Intel 82815 Graphics Controller w/latest drivers.

Any help would be appreciated

on-board Intel 82815 Graphics Controller w/latest drivers.

This is most probably the issue here. GGWAW needs a graphics card as per the system specs. The "Intel 82815 Graphics Controller" is an on board graphic chip with pretty low / shared Video Ram.

This is a pretty old controller which is not supported by Intel anymore.

I would suggest to upgrade to a mainstream graphic card that matches the requirements.
