Just bought a new video card and when i play this game, i see pictures like this and also my game will crash in weird ways like a window came up saying something c++ program and i hit ok and game closes.

Look for updated video card software

Download and install Everest Home Edition

Run the programme, click + next to computer then summary

Look on right for display / video adapter

Look at the manufacturer’s site for the suitable drivers for your Operating System

If you are unable to find them, please post the make and model here before you download anything

Please set a system restore point before you install anything

Well ive been downloading alot of drivers, but nonne seemed to work, my card is a MSI nvidia geforce nx6600. And i also used msi live update3 which came on the disc, but still nothing. This problem also happened with my other video card i was using, and radeon 9550. I also found out that this card works fine with COD2. I have my bios set at 256, and 8x.

Have you got a game called soldier of fortune

[ryngen737]

Yup soldier of fortune 2 is the game that all this problem is coming from

[Retired Tech]

Have you got the installation disc or an online source

[ryngen737]

Install disc

[Retired Tech]

Uninstall it, run through this

Items in blue which are underlined are clickable to give more information about the process

Click start then run, type prefetch then press enter, click edit then select all, right click any file then click delete, confirm delete

Click start, all programmes, accessories, system tools to run disc clean up, then from system tools, run disc defragmenter.

Click start then run, type sfc /scannow then press enter, you need the XP CD and Windows File Protection will show a blue onscreen progress bar, when the bar goes, reboot

Download and install Tune Up 2006 Trial

Run Tune Up Disc Clean Up

Run Tune Up Registry Clean Up

Click Optimize and Improve to run Reg Defrag, which will take a few minutes and need a reboot. You should disable the antivirus programme to run this and check it is running after the reboot

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to optimize the computer, select computer with an internet connection from the drop down menu, this also requires a reboot

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to accelerate downloads, select the speed just above your actual connection speed, this requires a reboot

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to run system advisor

Re-install it
