SPWAW: Help game won't run!

Post by danes »

I can't get spwaw to run. It shows the opening video and then dumps me back in windows 2000. It did this with v5.01, I upgraded, and it did it with v7.0. I have never gotten it to run.

I have no sound card, which could be the problem, but I am wondering is it because I can only get 24bit color, and the game needs 32bit? (It's a patchwork computer.)

I tried running mech directly, no joy. Tried most of the obvious stuff. It does seem to display a mouse cursor for a second.


This was at the end of the logfile, everything else looks normal:

As it was stated in the SPWAW forum a sound card is required to play, no way around it.
