Crash from scen load 1280 x 1024

Finally got the game. FYI took three attempts to download - first stopping at 81meg at 12 midnight NY time, the second at 134 meg at 2am NY time and the last successful at roughly 4am NY time (remember I'm in Australia so these times are cool). [;)]

First issue involves setting game resolution to 1280 x 1024. The scen settings screen comes up fine after scen selection abd options are allowed to be set. However on starting the game, the screen flickers, goes blank, the scen briefing screen pops up for a second and the game CTD's.

1024 x 768 resolution appears to work fine.

FYI as yet to play the game yet - just printed the rulebook. I like what I see at first glance. Noticed the game map viewable area seems smaller than KP but at this scale, that's not a problem on a 19" CRT.

Hi Adam,
Glad to hear you got your copy downloaded - with regards to the screen res issue - does your screen support that resolution? Are you able to go to your control panel, then the display settings, and set your resolution manually on 1280 x 1024 at 16 bit color mode?
If you are able to do this, then would you be able to send me a dxdiag file?

Cheers
AlexS

Hi Alex.

I'm running a GeForce4 Ti4200 with 8xAGP and 128MB video ram. Always run at 1280x1024 16bit.

I just updated the driver and no change. I'm left with a Windows error box on CTD and when the mouse moves it creates a colored phantom of what I guess would be a game screen.

Adam.
