Launch of Warcraft 3 problems

Hello

I use the beta version of windows 7 build 7100.

I have instaled recently Warcraft Reign of Chaos, with no problems at all, but when I try to start the game, it says I need to install Directx, which I already, or put on the cd, I did also. After that, I tried running as admin, he did not come up with those who pop up, the launch with the orc head image appeared but it just stops, the game never starts, he is just there frozen, I'm able to open new programs and so on, but it's never really the game starts , just sits there with that face ugly orc.

I tried to reinstall the game with no success and I also tried to run it as another system with no success, it is possible to do anything in this situation to make it work?

Hello, Cankiie

We appreciate that you are using Windows 7.

I'm happy to offer a few suggestions, but you will have to go on Support of Windows 7 forums on the following link for assistance troubleshooting: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro

Make sure you are fully updated and try to use the XP or Vista compatibility mode. Right click on the program shortcut / and choose to resolve compatibility issues.

I hope this helps.

  • At the launch of Warcraft III I get "cannot engage the directx '.

    at the launch of warcraft III using windows 7 Professional (64 bit), I get message "cannot engage the directx '. I reinstalled directx 11 and my video drivers without success.  I also tried to reinstall warcraft III.  This game has launched and has worked well for more than two months and then started to do this.  In a first time, if I restarted my computer it would start the game, but now it does not work.  What can I do?

    Obviously with the game running properly for a while, it is compatible with Win7.
    The game is fully patched?
    You have all the updates of Windows Installer? KB976264 is an important
    Update for older games.

    If the problem is actually a Direct X issue then the files that uses the game can somehow are damaged. In this case use Web Direct X Setup will fix the problem not as the Web Installer does not overwrite the DX files. It only installs files DX "missing."
    Try the redistributable of Direct X Installer, as it will overwrite the original files-
    Download details - Microsoft Download Center - DirectX Redist (June 2010)

    If you have other games that run properly then try reinstalling the game.  You can save your backups to be used after the relocation.
    If you don't have any other games using a PC with a graphics card, it may be worth re - a corner of your graphics card.
    Feeding offshore and disconnected (wait for the LED on the motherboard turns off, or wait more than 30 seconds if there is no LED) disconnect the cable from the monitor and remove the card from its location (do not handle map of the Strip).
    Clean the crack with a small clean brush and hand over the card.

    Without all the above, you can test the card in another machine, or another card in your machine.

  • Failure of the Windows Launcher

    I recently bought a copy of Command and Conquer 4.  It installs without any problem.  However, when I try to play the game, I get an error message saying that the Launcher has encountered a problem.  I am at a loss to know what to do.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times and have communicated with the support of the environmental assessment.  I still can't run.  Any help would be appreciated.

    seen tonight on a post.

    1. First of all, I have disabled the internet connection through the network connection setting.
    2. After that, I turned off the anti-virus software running on my computer.
    3. Then I tried to launch the game and surprisingly the SEOtoolkit and I have palyed with no error.

    Then also watch this.

  • Quick Launch HP 58626

    I have a hp pavillion 23 touchsmart all-in-one.

    just downloaded the HP 58626 Quick Launch program. During the installation of the software it seems to hang and then, when you try to remove it, you get an option to repair the installation. This is the end. It is in Control Panel, programs installed, however it does not work. rebooting does nothing.

    I am running 8.1 base.

    I don't have to download it from the forum site HP and not one of these third parties who charge you with unwanted programs.

    Does anyone have this race?

    Larry

    Hello shiponomore1939,

    I understand that you have downloaded and installed the HP Quick Launch program and after problems to install the software does not work. This could be because the software was not designed for your computer. When you access the product sheet HP Pavilion TouchSmart 23 - f250 all-in-one desktop PC , your computer does not come with HP Quick Launch on this. HP Quick Launch and quick start of HP are designed for laptops and not for all-in-one computers. I went through all the variations I can find and find compatibility with only laptops.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • error-17500 when you use the version selector and the toolboxinstaller.exe file not found since the deployment of ts3.5

    Whenever I run the version selector to switch between ts4.2 and 3.5, it displays the error message above and gives also advice how to fix for a version of visual studio, I do not have (I am using 2003). As well as this when I start the deployment of TS3.5 engine I get error message with toolboxinstaller.exe system.io.filenotfound. I know that they are then tried to repair/reinstall nothing works, any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

    Hi Elizabeth,.

    The message below is similar to the message that you receive (note that this message relates to Visual Studio 2005, you could relate to Visual Studio 2003):

    This is a known issue with Version TestStand selector and was reported to R & D (#171620). The picker Version TestStand assumes that when Visual Studio is installed on the machine, that Visual C++ has also been installed. It tries to write in Visual C++ specific files that do not exist if Visual C++ is not installed.

    This error does not mean that something is not necessarily, it is more a message that the file cannot be written in successfully. You should be able to continue to launch TestStand successfully without problem.

    On the deployment utility, I suppose that the two issues are related, however, it would be much easier to say for certain that the error you receive won't cause problems if you post a screenshot of the error. You can do it.

    Thank you!

  • lvsound failed

    Hello

    I created an executavle VI which include read the wave function, and when I tried to run my exe in a new computer that does not have a LabVIEW, in a new window pop up asking to lvsound.dll

    I've included this dll in when building my exe, but nothing has changed

    Any idea

    Thanks in advance

    Hi nadia,

    After you create your exe right-click on your exe and select Explore you will land on your generation page you will find a folder named data. Simply copy the lvsound.dll in the particular folder. When you copy the exe file to another system to copy the file to build and launch the exe. the problem will be solved.
