Matrix Games Forums

So I finally decided to buy and download Crown of Glory, however...

The game crashes randomly after starting a campaign and being on the main map screen. The crashes always occur somewhere in 30 seconds or less of starting a game and the error apparently points to graphics.dll.

I have a patched, vanilla build of Windows XP 64 and run LOTS of games on it with no problems and have done so for the last year, so it's got to be a very minor bug, however it's obviously a show-stopper. What can I give you to help troubleshoot what's killing it. I have the Microsoft crash info I can pass you or Dxdiag which would be less useful in this case I think.

Any ideas?

Windows XP 64 is not supported and COG does not run on that OS.  XP 64 runs Windows XP on an emulator and Microsoft admits that the emulated XP is not completely compatible.

Matrix has offered refunds to people who bought COG in the past under the assumption that it would run on XP 64 if you don't have another system on which you can run it.
