Default Damn it!

Well I never had this problem before....
Just changed video cards from ATI to Nvidia.I uninstalled the ATI drivers etc before fitting the Nvidia card with latest drivers but TvT now crashes when you click to start the mission.
I did a clean install of TvT but still no luck.
It ran before with the very same Nvidia card.Weird.
I have all of those 'missing' files in the TvT folder and Windows/System folder too.

This isn't a game problem I am sure,it's something to do with the swap over of video cards.

I am going to try a few things first.Stand by....

Default Drivers

Chucky have you tried re-insytalling your drivers? What about your DirectX have you updated it?Sometimes when you chnage graphic cards you need to update drivers etc.

BTW there´s a guy on another thread who´s got a problem with the missing 70 and 71 dll files.Can´t start the game.Do you know where he can download them?

Best of luck

CHUCKY WHAT DID YOU DO man!
A tip for you and anyone who changes out their video card:
The number one thing is (in windows) UN-install your video adapter
driver and reboot. You should see at the log in screen a change in
the screen size if the UN-install was successful. Then DO NOT LOG IN
shut the computer down or off. Then add your new video adapter.

Hang in there Chucky we got you covered Kameraden!

Thanks ZW,I am sure I did that though.It needed a format anyway,there were other issues that I needed to address that a format and re-install would cure.

Anyway I am back now,drinking Gin and waiting for Steam to re-install 90 gig's worth of games.Slow isn't the word,and I am running out of Gin

Will try TvT tomorrow but I am sure it will be fine.

Chucky.
