Bought this game and had it running for a while
Then I bought the Nvidia 3d monitor kit comprising of the Samsung LCD monitor (Z-Samsung 2233 120htz) and Nvidia 3d Glasses kit
Since then Sacred no longer loads
Detail
3ghz Intel quad core processor
Asus P5E3 Wifi Motherboard
Geforce 260OC Graphic Card (BFG)
Motherboard Sound Drivers
Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit
Nvidia 195.62 Nov 09 Drivers with Nvidia 195.62 3d Vision Driver
Now before I start I have to say Sacred worked before the 3d Driver was added
I have set the monitor to 60htz frame rate as there is no need to have 120htz selected to play this as I dont need the 3d effect
As you start the game the title starts, shows the Stratagy first logo - then you get "windows has stopped responding" message
Because its windows 7 Ultimate I have tried xp compatibility - no joy
I then set again the refresh rate to 60htz and rebooted to make sure once booted it had selected the correct refresh rate - no joy same problem
I then ran the configurator supplied and chose the video compatibility mode - still no joy
Last thing to try is a fresh install and make sure i backup my save game file
But wanted people to know that adding the 3d vision driver so far has destroyed the game unless I have missed something
Techies - if you can think of something let me know
