Hello everyone,
The videos in my install of QFG 5 are not displaying video, despite sound playing and no errors. I've tried re-installing and repairing the game with no success. What else can I do to try and fix this? The game itself runs flawlessly otherwise.
Running Windows 8.1 64-bit. I've dusted off and, with much pain, managed to install QFG5 from my old original discs, and the video works there (though that version won't get passed the New Game screen due to the 16-bit color bug, of course). I've also tried to disable SLI mode, also with no success, checked for updates from NVIDIA, and restarted my machine. I can post other specs/settings if it would help,
Any help is appreciated: I'm actually showing this series to a friend of mine who's never played before, and I'm at my WIT's end!
Oh, and before anyone says it: yes, I tried looking in the forum before posting this, and all I found were people asking about the same issue and others responding with something like "it's a known problem, go look up old posts" or "I did some black magic that I don't remember and now it's fixed, so never mind" - none of the posts I've seen have an actual solution shown. Google at large has shown nothing after 2 hours of searching, too.
