Galciv DA on Vista
from 
Stardock Forums
Stardock Forums
I bought this game in Nov 2007. It kept freezing up and I came onto this site seeking help. I have spent about 30 hours trying to navigate through the forum to find out how to fix the problem. in this time I have-
-Downloaded the latest version which is now V1.8.
-Checked my Nvidia drivers which must be version 158.24 or higher. My version says 7.15.10.9759. Is this higher? I've no idea. Am I even looking in the right place?
-Logged onto Nvidia. They referred me to Toshiba.
-Toshiba said my drivers are up to date. The game kept freezing.
-Logged on to laptop2go. They said my Nvidia drivers are up to date.
-Downloaded every single update available.
-By now my computer stopped producing the debug.err file in the DA folder. It appears in the GC2 folder but I don't think it's the one relevant to DA. I think the DA folder is writable. I can certainly put documents in there.
I am attaching the debug file from the GC2 folder as it probably gives you some information.
It may be that my less than a year old laptop isn't up to it. I'd like to know as I will then stop bashing my head on this problem.
On last question. According to the posts on this forum, this problem with Vista has been known for over a year. Is there any possibility that a release will come out that is compatible with vista and that allows a schmuck like me to do something simple, like buy a game off the shelf because it looks good, take it home, install it and play it?
