Thats probably why! RA2 and Navidia don't mix well, as i know from experience.

Post by: N2ader on June 16, 2010, 01:16:07 PM: then how did it work with my bro he uses nividia too :(

Post by: Bubbleman on June 16, 2010, 01:20:58 PM: well, did you move the mouse? on mine (using nvidia) it only moved side to side.

Post by: Sage on June 16, 2010, 01:57:07 PM: Download from my signature.

Post by: Serge on June 16, 2010, 02:05:43 PM: It may look like you have too much crap on your computer (malware, adware, worms, etc). Download Malwarebytes' Antimalware (google for it), run it and scan your hard drive.

Post by: Trovaner on June 16, 2010, 02:17:29 PM: How are you transferring RA2 between the two computers (flash drive, seperate installs, etc.)?

Assuming that you are using the same files as him, does the game still play on your brother's computer after seeing this error on yours?

Have you tried updating your sound and video drivers?

Missing a file wouldn't throw this sort of error, I think (I'd rather expect a C++ runtime exception, since as far as I can tell the initial file loading code of RA2 is quite robust).

Post by: N2ader on June 17, 2010, 05:43:35 PM: so .. is there anyway i can fix it ? :(
Title: Re: crash when i run the game
Post by: Trovaner on June 17, 2010, 06:03:09 PM: I would still recommend updating your sound and video drivers, if you haven't done so already...

Post by: Madiaba on June 17, 2010, 11:04:27 PM: So, N2ader,
