Ok, after my graphics card 'died', I realised I had a spare PC in the back of my room, and tried to get it up and running (clean harddrive etc)



Copied my quakedir over to this harddrive, and also tried downloading/reinstalling ezquake from the the ezquake site. It's also worth noting that it does this in both SW and GL.

Fuhquake works fine, ezQuake brings up the dreaded error report screen.

Unable to find a fix, no matter what processors I end and whatever...

Thing is, it's essentially a fresh install of windows just the other day, so I'm just puzzled as to what could be causing it... any help?

Specs beoth:

<@Meez> (CPU1) AMD Athlonâ„¢ XP 2200+ @ 1795MHz ( KT400-8235 mainboard) , 217.5MB free (HDDs) 227GB, 127GB free
<@Meez> (VGA1) NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 Ultra (128MB), 1280x1024x32, 85Hz (OS) Microsoft Windows XP Professional (SP2), 1h 21m 51s uptime, 4d 16h 10m 43s uptime record

The previous ezQuake version always crashed on startup for me on both my own machine and a friends Athlon. Both machines used Nvidia cards too.
I think the software version was OK though.

Strange thing is, that after around 20 (I'm guessing) startup attempts and failures, the OpenGL version started working. This happened on both machines.

do you have the ezquake required 1010 ?

Latest build, 1517 iirc.

Cmdline or no cmdline, it still doesnt load.

Config or no config, the exe just doesnt load.

I mean, clean, just a plain double click does the same thing.


For dir listing... one sec...
