...crashes to desktop on loading announcing it has encountered errors and will close.

Eidos's UK website has no tech support section for Just Cause. The US site mentions only two totally unrelated issues. There is no support forum.

Any ideas?

Athlon64 3500+
Radeon X850 XT PE
2Gb Corsair XMS3200LL
Audigy
Windows XP

Ta!
 
I had this with the demo - just wouldn't run. :(

I solved it by playing the x360 version :)

Not much use to you but if you come across a fix I'd appreciate it :)
 
works fine on mine, try using basic sound acceleration. ive left it on that on mine from when i was playing gta (1) what does the full acceleration in sound do anyway?
 
They are Omegas.

Why can't games just work? Why must I rebuild my perfectly functional PC just to play a game?

Jeez if I can't manage it how on earth is Man In Street supposed to take PC gaming seriously.

This is the sort of thing that kills PC gaming and makes consoles grow in popularity. Every other game I have functions perfectly.
 
Fox, I've had the game CTD for me a couple of times as well, but my biggest issue with it is the fps slowdown and stuttering it has after playing for about 15 mins.

Apparently its due to some sort of memory leak problem and a lot of folk are having the same thing happen to them too.

Posted about it here:-

There seems to be no "fix" for it just now, I can only hope that Eidos come out with a patch for it soon, as its a fantastic game but becomes pretty much unplayable after about 15 mins on many peoples systems.

Hope you find a solution to your problem, Fox, keep us updated and I will do likewise as far as the stuttering thing goes. :cool:
 
Fox, have you tried un-installing it again and then running perhaps RegSeeker to find and remove any crap reg entries. Run that a few times and then when it finds no more errors to fix try installing the game again, see if that helps?

I had a few problems where BF2 would just load then CTD for no reason. In the end I had to uninstall and reinstall it to fix the problem. Maybes try the Official 6.9's instead of the Omega's?

Good luck! :)
