Re: Command & Conquer games won't start

I have what might be a similar issue...   so far, while testing my various installed applicaitons, I have only seen it on one version, however.

In "Command and Conquer - Generals,"  the game launcher starts, and allows the game itself to start.  I hear the "EA Games" video START to play, but it doesn't play all the way through, and I see only a black screen, with a bit of garbageflashing on it very briefly."

I tried setting my screen refresh rate down from its default 144 to 60... that often works in cases like this... but that didn't help.

The program continues to run in the background but the only way to fix things (so to speak) is to alt-tab out of the program and use "Process Explorer" to kill the game EXE.
