I bought FOT when it first came out and had no problem with getting it to run (did experience problems in game) But today I decided to play again and re-installed it. Now the game wont start. I get a black screen, and an error beep. Then i'm treated to two error boxes, the first says;
c:\dev\phoenix\directx7\dd7_display.cpp(715):***FATAL ERROR***: could not creat primary or back surfaces
After i click ok on that box, i get a new box that says runtime error in bos.exe abnormal termination.
Ive installed the directx 8.0a that comes with FOT, and that didnt help, so i installed the new dirextx8.1 and still the same problem. Im running my comp in win2000, but like i said before i played it on this machine before!!!! Also
I cant even find the folder C:\dev much less c:\dev\phoenix\directx7
Has anybody even heard of this happening?
please please help me if you can....
