Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Loading issue

Answer HQ,

I have Command and Conquer Zero Hour and after the game crashed during a round, the game will no longer open, and the icon is a blank page.

I click on the icon, it opens up the window showing the two Zero Hour games you can play and niether of them open anything after I click on them.

I have had the game for about a year, so this is the first time this has happened.

If you have any answers, please tell me.

    Could you please try disabling Origin In Game to see if the issue still occurs after this? You can disable Origin In Game if you go to the Origin menu in the top left corner of the client, then Application Settings and Origin In game.

    Hi,

    Just wanted to say I had the same issue.  Win 8.1 64-bit, Origin client, Zero Hour had been working for months without any issues.  Then a few days ago when I went to launch it, the dialog box with Generals and Zero Hour would come up, but when I clicked on either, nothing would happen.  Generels.exe was running according to Task Manager, but the game wouldn't launch.  The PLAY button was greyed out, as were other options.  When I went into Task Manager and killed the process (generals.exe), then the PLAY button became active again.

    For those interested, it was recorded as an Application Hang Event ID 1002 in Event Viewer :

    The program Generals.exe version 1.0.0.1 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel.
    Process ID: d8
    Start Time: 01d003fc6f889409
    Termination Time: 4294967295

    I had reinstalled and tried a number of other things, but it acted in the same way.  Then I found this post and disabled "Enable Origin in Game" and that worked.  Zero Hour once again launches as it always did.

    tks.

  • also having the same problem....is there a larger issue here  I wonder?
