Is that all of it? This is a weird crash, try installing the latest version over what you have installed and see if it works.

its the latest version (7) and the graphics card has the latest driver

TheCannon187 · July 28, 2007, 06:12:08 PM

Don't install it for an update, just do it and see if it fixes it.

Melting Plastic · July 28, 2007, 06:22:21 PM

Its a full clean install of v7

run blockland.exe -trace and post your console log.

my GF plays blockland on that exact card.

must be driver issues

Badspot · July 28, 2007, 09:00:34 PM

You did it right, but unfortunately it doesn't clarify the situation. It's just crashing on the video initialization. I assume your desktop is set to at least 1024x768 in 16,24 or 32-bit color?

My only thought is that it's a driver issue. You could try making sure that all old drivers are removed then re-installing the latest nvidia driver.

hmmm, well i'll mess around with stuff. thanks for the help!
