I just purchased/installed SWAT 4 gold edition today (Dec. 13th 2020) and it is crashing upon launch, before it gets to the main menu. I am getting the following error message:

"No Label

Crash Time: 12/12/20 22:39:46

OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: GenuineIntel PentiumPro-class processor @ 2502 MHz with 1023MB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti (5167)

UserName: miker
ComputerName: LAPTOP9SD82H14
Application location: C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\SWAT 4\Content\System\

SWAT Build Number: 34688

Access Violation caused General protection fault!"

I have tried running the program as the administrator, there is no swat4.ini file (closest file type is .INT), I changed the compatibility mode, I have uninstalled/reinstalled, still no luck. Can anyone help me figure out why this is doing this?

Thanks!

The ini file you are looking for should be located in the subdirectory \SWAT 4\Content\System\, not in the main directory. Try deleting the file if it is present in that folder.

Anyway have you a multi-monitor system? I'm asking because some users reported problems using a second monitor.
