NFL BLITZ PC problem
« on: January 09, 2005, 06:10:02 pm »
I put the cd in and click the game icon and it loads. After the midway screen it starts to show a demo of the game starting and then it completely exits me back to windows, and the game isnt even on the taskbar anymore, whats going on, I want to play this game, anyone else have this problem?

Just for the hell of it, if you are running WinXP. Run the game in Win98 Compatability mode.

What I was saying is; update your system, get all the latest patches. 

But if you want just the one that I am referring to, read this and see if it sounds familiar

Are you trying to run the OpenGL version, or the DirectX version of Blitz?  Both come on the CD-Rom.  And if you don't have a graphics card that will support one, the other, or both, you won't be able to run it.

Or, you may just need to upgrade the version of same.
