Game wont run :(

[marky]

ive installed it and pressed play, but it wont play

y ?

how can i fix this ?

does any1 know wat im talking about?

[redman1]

Frankly, no. I've never had any problems with mine.

Are all other programs closed?

Have you tried restarting your machine?

Have you defrag'd your hard drive recently?

You may end up having to uninstall and then reinstall the software.

Not much info here, but you have to click on your "Uncommon Valor Game Menu" icon or link. Then, when the screen prompt says, "Play Uncommon Valor?" you have to click on "Yes." Then, strange and wonderful things begin to happen...

[marky]

i never see any "yes" option [&:]

i know im being a little vague but im not exactly a computer wizard

Have you tried starting the game other than using the auto run feature?

Try going to it through the start menu. Click start, go to programs, uncommon valor, then click on the uncommon valor that pops out sideways.

You may also try double clicking on the .exe in the uncommon valor folder. I won't try explaining that here because I'd probably just get you lost.

I never use auto run to start the game because it doesn't give me the option to play, only to install it

i would reconmend that u close or disable any other software that is running in the background. I know that some firewall's stop u from starting programs. U can always find the exe file in the UV directory and run it direct. If all else fails, try to uninstall and reinstall.

i think i tried all that a couple times over [:(]

now it wont even let me uninstall, it said it couldnt load initialization file

PLease attach a DirectX dialog file, it´s all posted in there.


1. click on "START"
2. click "run"
3. type in "dxdiag" and click "OK"
4. check through the tabs and perform all tests
5. click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice

Make sure your CD is in your master drive, it won't run on slave drives.

[marky]

my computer geek brother in law even took a crack at it, and after 2 HOURS, he STILL couldnt get the damn thing to work [:'(]

When you say Master Drive, do you mean IDE master, or do you intend some other meaning?
