Returned to RA2, DSL crashing on startup

[inplabth]

Hey, everyone. After a long time away form here I ran across one of many backups that I have of RA2 and immediately wanted to play it. Since I typically play DSL exclusively, my DSL backup was the first one that I tried. As soon as it started up, it crashed. I figured that something in it had gotten corrupted over time or something along those lines, so I downloaded the one from Sage's sig and that one crashes too. I'm not entirely sure what is going on.

Try editing the ra2.cfg so it's not in fullscreen mode anymore. sometimes the fullscreen causes a crash. The download should work on any operating system.

Well, I redownloaded the one from your thread, extracted it and it works fine. I dunno why, but I'm not complaining.

Well, welcome back :D

Well, I can start up the game and it works fine windowed, but if I try to change the volume settings it crashes, not a big deal.

If that's the case, you can try editing ra2.cfg in Notepad to ensure that the volume settings and nothing else important gets changed.
