The game doesn't launch on a GeForce 7600GT. — Technical Support

I had a Radeon X800 video card :) (the game ran without any problems).
I replaced it with a GeForce 7600GT :mad:, and now the game doesn't
load; the computer displays some kind of error (I can't
see what it is, but I can see through Alt+Tab that there
is some kind of window). The only way to exit is through
Task Manager (by ending the task). I've tried different drivers;
I currently have the latest one from the Nvidia website.
I installed the patch, and the disc is a licensed copy. Does anyone have any advice? Has anyone else had problems with GeForce cards? Changing the drivers doesn't help, and DirectX 9.c is working properly.

try adjusting the 3D acceleration settings.
and experiment with the Heroes tweaking tool.

This is a program for configuring Heroes.

I have a similar issue (I already wrote about it), but I have a 6600, and the game starts but crashes almost immediately. I'll try using the tool that Rean suggested.

I'm having some issues with Windows. I installed a second system, Windows 2000, and everything runs fine. I don't really want to reinstall XP, as it would take a lot of time to set everything up again...

I've noticed that many people are having trouble running the game on XP SP2, or am I wrong?

I have the second service pack and everything runs perfectly.

I also have SP2 Prof, and it runs fine, even though my configuration isn't very powerful... so it's not the SP2 that's the problem...

I have a 6600 and everything runs fine. Try installing older drivers, but don't forget to uninstall the current ones first. I had the same issue with another game.
I used to play Far Cry with a Radeon card. I switched to a GeForce and started experiencing issues – blue mountains, yellow walls. I installed a licensed copy of the game, and everything started working normally.

Your problem is that after changing the video card, you should have reinstalled Windows and installed it from scratch. There is an incompatibility between the systems of these two manufacturers (when changing the video card). And there is no other way!

I've noticed that the game runs poorly on XP SP 2 for many people, or am I wrong?

Not exactly! It runs poorly for those who don't take care of their computer; it also needs maintenance! :)

this reinstallation feels like a kick in the teeth...
it's all just teething problems... daily reinstallation...
you need to install the system once, and use it properly...
although I think it will help...

This reinstallation feels like a pain in the neck.
These are just teething problems... daily reinstallations...

Try patch 1.2.
