    Default I Need Help.I'm going crazy over this.

    My game crashes when movies are played on the campaign map and I've seen what I'm supposed to do to fix this but I don't know how to do what I'm supposed to do to fix it.I need a walkthrough on how to fix this problem.Here are the 2 solutions.PLEASE HELP.

    -Updating drivers for VGA card and mainboard chipset and sometimes updating drivers for sound cards might solve the issues

    -uninstalling CODEC-packs or any third party DivX or XviD codecs (can solve "the game not loading-up" or "game crashing while playing movies" errors)

    Okay, do me a favor. Click on Start (in windows) and click on Run. Type in DXdiag. This will bring up the DX Diagnostics. Give it some time to finish running its tests (you can see a progress bar in the bottom left). Once that bar disappears, the diagnostics is done. Then click on the "Save All Information" button and save the text file to your desktop.

    Now, open up the text file and copy the entire text. Come here to the forum and click on Add Reply (none of that quick reply nonsense). Click on the # icon, which will insert tags that say CODE. In between the brackets paste the copied info from the DXDiag.

    It should look something like this:

    Then we'll see what we can do.

    Also, you could just disable the movies in the game. I'm not sure where though, off hand. I'm at work so I can't exactly check right now.

    Edit: Found it: "Editing the medieval2.preference.cfg file in the game directory, by changing "event_cutscenes = 1" to "event_cutscenes = 0" (without the quotes) fixes the problem. Of course, you can't see the cutscenes, but at least it doesn't crash now."

    I'm pretty sure all you need to do is uninstall then reinstall windows media player.

    If this doesn't work then its because you have some 3rd part codecs or another media player type of program which you may need to remove.

    And got the latest version of Windows Media Player but that didn't fix it.but I haven't uninstalled then reinstalled but i'll try it.Would it be the same if I deleted as much as I can?I can't find a way to uninstall it.

    I reinstalled the latest version of Windows Media Player.It didn't work.

    Edit:Garrion333 changing preferance.cfg file would turn off the movies that I can't control in the game but it's still a problem that needs to be fixed.

    Do you have the latest video and sound card drivers?

    Its a pretty old system and the drivers on the HP site are probably not all that up to date so you may want to get the latest nvidia drivers for you FX 5200 video card from http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
    -------------------------
    Enough is enough.

    Do NOT download and use the latest driver from Nvidia. It's junk. Go here and get the 91.31 version or the 91.47 version here. Up to you which to use, really, but I am 100% certain the 91.31 are compatible.

    If you don't know the correct procedure to install new video drivers, PM me. It's simple, but doing it wrong can cause all sorts of conflicts.

    I'm not so sure about your sound card driver because I can't be certain which chipset of the Realtek AC97 you have, but here are the latest drivers for that. Again, you will need to uninstall the old driver first. I don't think sound is the issue you are having, so much as having drivers that are 3 years old for your video card. That is the #1 issue.

    Now as to changing the preference.cfg file to turn the movies off . . . I don't quite understand what you were trying to say. You did turn them off but it didn't work? Either way, you need to make sure you uncheck the read-only button in the properties menu (i.e. right click on the file, select properties), then make the changes, then save and close the cfg file and finally, go back into the properties and click read-only.

    They're unstable on some systems, not all. If they work fine for you, keep them. They caused issues with my system when trying to play Anno 1701. A friend of mine from their forums tests the drivers and he cautioned everyone when they came out because he ran into a lot of issues with them, which is strange for Nvidia to do.

    Plus, I don't know if they're compatible with his card, so I was playing it safe.

    bamsuls, I can't reply to your PM. It says you "chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her."

    Either enable it or I can post my reply here. PM-ing is better, though. Just let me know. I've got my reply saved.

    Default Re: I Need Help.I'm going crazy over this.

    Okay, it still won't let me send you a PM. Whatever. I'll post it here.

    (Note: This seems long, but it isn't. I'm just giving too much detail. Before you start, go to the Microsoft Windows Update page and update any essential files. For now, ignore the hardware and optional ones.)

    Uninstalling your video driver is a pretty simple process, but it is one that requires a decent step-by-step process.

    First, I'll point you to this thread: here

    It's related to ATI cards, but we'll be doing something similar. Look over it if you like, but we'll only be doing a lite version of his. No need to get you programs you don't want (but you can if you like).

    Before we start there are two things you are going to want to have already downloaded. First is the new video card driver, which you probably already have. Put it on your desktop for easy access. Next, you are going to want to get a registry cleaner program. I recommend getting two programs as they will catch different things. First, is Crap Cleaner. That's right, it's called Crap Cleaner and its free. You can get it here. The other program you might want to get is WinASO Registry Optimizer. It isn't free, but you can find it other places if you like. If you do go with WinASO, follow the instructions given in the ATI thread I posted above. (Whichever you choose, install the program and run it through once before starting, just cause)

    Okay, now onto the fun stuff.

    To uninstall your driver, the first thing you do is open up your control panel. Click on Add/Remove Programs. You want to uninstall your Nvidia drivers. Note here that you may have Nvidia drivers for things like your ethernet adapter and whatnot, we only want to uninstall the video drivers (They will be listed as "Nvidia drivers" in the Add/Remove list). If you don't see a selection for video drivers, then do this instead. Right click on the My Computer icon and select properties. Click on the Hardware tab, then click on Device Manager.

    Once in device manager you'll have tons to choose from. What you want is to click on the plus sign next to Display adapters. Here you should find your video card FX 5200. Right click on your card and choose the Uninstall option. It'll probably give you a warning, just say yes.

    Once you've uninstalled the driver, you will want to reboot your computer. When windows comes back up, the resolution will be really low and look really crappy. That's fine. You're video card just doesn't have any drivers to use so its running on empty, essentially.

    What we want to do now is run your registry cleaner program(s) again. This will get rid of trace elements of your video driver. Once you have done that, reboot.

    Now, we're back to the same old crappy desktop, but this time, we get to install the Nvidia driver. So, double click on the driver exe and install it as you would any other program. Reboot the computer and see how things go with M2:TW. Your settings should be pretty darned low on everything since your card is a first generation DirectX video card.

    I'll reply to the other PM later (i.e., don't buy anything just yet). For now, get this done.

    Good luck, and let me know how it goes.

    Default Re: I Need Help.I'm going crazy over this.

    Oh, and whatever you do, don't buy a new videocard. First off, I'm certain you only have an AGP slot being that your comp is a few years old now. Two of the cards you listed in the second PM were PCI-E cards, which wouldn't work in your system.

    Second is the fact that to get, say a 7800GS (which comes in the AGP model), you are probably going to run into power issues. I doubt very much you're power supply can handle that card correctly and run everything else.

    And of course, there is the ever present issue of having a great video card, but everything else bottlenecks in your system. Having only 512MB of RAM is bad. Your CPU is decent enough (and possibly overclockable to 3.3mhz without a new heatsink and fan for the cpu).

    Anyway, from your info your computer is one of these. From those specs, I don't think you have much wiggle room to upgrading right now. You're best bet, if you want to play the latest games, is to 1) get a mid-level card that your PSU will support (cost $60) 2) overhall most of your system (cost should be $400+) or 3) build a new rig (cost $600 [low level], $800 [mid level], $800+ [mid-high level]).

    You're unfortunately stuck at a crossroads in computers. You don't have a pci-e slot. You don't have a dual core system. You don't have DDR2. To get the best parts your current motherboard supports will cost you just about as much as a new computer. If you have the power, the high-end AGP cards cost more than their PCI-E counterparts (compare this to that). For $100 more you can have a top-of-the-line 8800 series DirectX 10 compatible card that will last you years. Upgrading an AGP will extend your current system maybe a year or two before you run into issues again.

    The same is true of buying DDR-2 RAM. Top end RAM for your computer will cost you $200 for 2 gigs or $100 for 1 gig. It'll cost you less to buy 2 gigs of DDR-2 than buying top-of-the-line DDR RAM, and it DDR-2 will have a much longer life in your computer.

    And so on.

    How do I know? Simple, I went through this just two months ago. I bought an ATI x1950PRO beast of a video card for my AGP system and it did have a noticable impact. But then I bought a new PSU to give it adequate power, which nearly doubled the cost of the card. And I added RAM, which sped it up more, but cost an arm and a leg. I have since sold all that stuff on ebay, recouped most of my expenses and am running a beast of a computer that spits on M2:TW's graphical capabilities.

    Sorry for the long diatribe, but I thought you might want to think this over a bit more before you start pumping money into a computer that, in the long run, won't be worth it's cost.

    Ok I got the new driver and it was good till I turned on my game.When I turned it on the mouse didn't work and the screens in medieval 2 were too big for the monitor.It didn't crash but I couldn't see the entire screen in medieval 2 and I couldn't use the mouse when medieval 2 was on.


    PS:I need more time to read the stuff you posted but thanks and I'm sorry about the PM thing.

    EDIT:Ok,I finished reading your last post but I'll probably need to read it again when I get home.(I'm at school.)I got another GB of RAM and it had a noticeable impact on the game speed.

    EDIT2:I think I should tell you that I didn't know how to uninstall the earlier driver so I downloaded the 91.31 version without uninstalling the earlier driver.I'm just telling you that.

    EDIT3:I'll elaborate on my problem.When Medieval 2 is on,the monitor doesn't display the entire screen.For example,when the game first comes on and shows that still picture of a battle between Danish(Denmark) heavy cavalry and someone else,I can only see the bottom-left of that screen.The game works,but the problem is I can't see the whole screen.The next problem the new driver(91.31) caused is that when the game is on,the mouse won't work.The cursor will move around but when I try to exit out of Medieval 2(Exiting isn't the only button that doesn't work.It's just an example)it doesn't work.

    PS.Medieval 2 is the only program I've encountered a problem with since the installation of the new driver.(91.31)

    LASTEDIT:It's humorous to think CCleaner means crap cleaner but I'm pretty sure it means computer cleaner.
