It might be a bug but as i've not actually played the game yet (it's on my list of games to play) I can only give you general advice.

Spellforce Gold comes with the first expansion pack only so you should use the full patch.

Try backing up your saves, uninstall the game, reinstall the game, patch and put the saves back.

The DirectX log will give them basic system specs, hardware driver information, version of Windows, computer name etc etc.

The msinfo log will give them more advanced system specs. Detailed hardware driver information, video codec information, audio codec information, drive letters assignments, details about your hard drives (it won't tell them what's on it), detailed system driver information, tasks running, running files, Windows services information, start menu information, startup program information etc etc. It basically just advanced system information and there doesn't seem to be any personal information taken.

Hi ZEUS_GB
Thanks for your quick reply so you think this is normal information and is safe to give them this and why do they need to know about hardware and stuff Thanks again


Cheyenne 09

[ZEUS_GB]

It's just normal software and hardware information, I assume it's their standard procedure to obtain these logs. It'll be safe.

I suppose the want the information so that they can check hardware or software issues before they start looking for bugs in the game.

Hi ZEUS_GB
ok i just thought i was a bit odd that the computer name would be in part of the information they were requesting. Thanks again

Hi ZEUS_GB
I have heard from the game support and they told me to uninstall the driver as that wasn't the right one so i downloaded this one from them ( the actual driver version is 93.71. ) and have since uninstalled the Game again and reinstalled it as they requested and have just finished doing that and tried the patch again but i still can't get it to work so i have replyed to the game support again so what should i do now. Thanks again for all your Help

Wait and see what they come up with.

The driver I asked you to install isn't the wrong driver it's just slightly older and more stable then the current 9x.xx series of drivers. Which in my opinion are just complete crap.

[cheyenne 09]

Hi ZEUS_GB
Still no luck with tech support as they haven't answered the my second Email but i have just received Spellforce 2 Shadow Wars and interestingly so far has no problems so what should i do now just live with this problem or any other ideas as i installed the driver version is 93.71 they suggested. Thank you again

P.s i didn't mean that you had suggested the wrong driver Sorry if you misunderstood in thier opnion i had the wrong driver installed Thanks again

Both of those patches are for the Breath of Winter expansion pack which you don't have.
