Demo problems.

[Gldm]

I downloaded the demo and have been having nothing but trouble trying to get it to work. I saw the message about video.cfg and since I have a Radeon 9800 on my desktop I tried that, but it still crashes with a similar error. Tried updating drivers, no change. Finally I was able to edit it and got the game to come up in software mode. If I try to switch to 3D accelerated, it crashes out. If I try and play a mission in software mode, it gets as far as displaying the ship, then immediately crashes to desktop. The error log says it's an access violation.

So, I tried to move it onto my laptop, which has a Pentium M and a Geforce FX 5200. There I was able to get it up and running in 3D accelerated mode, and played through one mission. However near the beginning of the second mission it crashed to desktop again, this time with a PRIV_INSTRUCTION error in the log.

I'm really interested in this game and have been dying for something to replace freespace2 and/or independance war 2, but if I can't even get the demo running stable for half an hour I don't think I'll risk buying it until some major patches are out. Any idea if there's something I've overlooked that can fix it? I'll send in error logs if someone just tells me where, I couldn't find a support email adress on the site.

Doh, was trying to put this in the support forum! I hate this damn interface!
