Temporary Setback

First topic message reminder :

I have been constructing a gaming computer for quite a few months now, and I finally finished it a few days back. It runs like a dream, playing everything I have at max settings with little effect on my processor and GPU.

But I have a problem. My jk2 seems to not like my new system, and I have tried everything to get it to work. I googled it a lot over the past few days, but I have found no solution that has worked. So I am now getting desperate, and asking for help for I can't stand being away from JK2 for so long. I rather not have to play on my laptop, but I will have to every so often until I get it to work on my new gaming computer. If anyone can help, that would mean a lot to me.

So the error I am having with JK2 is that it starts up, loading the Open GL subsystem, then starts the game, but for some reason JKMP.exe shuts down suddenly. Same for SP, and no the patch did not work, so please don't suggest that, I am not stupid.

My computer rig is as follows before anyone asks:

OP: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 6850 series
Processor: AMD Athlon II x3

I am still looking, but if you can I have my MSN and Xfire always on.

MSN: elder_outcast@yahoo.com
Xfire: dartharchon

Then click the plus sign to display adapters and it says the name of your video card! (This is explained for Windows XP, I assume it is the same for other versions)

2.Nog still not solved?

You can see this Control Panel -> Appearance and Themes -> Display -> Settings -> Advanced ---> Troubleshooting -> Hardware acceleration slider. This may be different from other versions of Windows

Umm I already installed all my new drivers Tweetie, but thanks for the suggestion. >.<

Well, I think it might be a corrupt file for it still tells me that it's an APPCRASH, which is supposedly caused by miss-installation or viruses. Seeing as I just built this computer, I can rule out viruses, so it might be the CD finally crapped out on me. It has quite a bit of scratches on it, but I didn't think it be that bad, for I seen worse.

But I am not leaning towards the fact it's a corrupt file, and that means I need a new CD. But seeing that they don't sell them anymore, I am going to have to get an ISO file. And I know just who to ask......


I will update if this fixes the problem.

download vuze, used to be azuerus, use it to find an iso... u can plugin many bittorrnet site to it. you may have to read a bit to do this but it's a great program. i use it on my fedora (linux) servers. link below is for windows version.

also, yea it could be your disk but if it is why did it install. have you run memtest on your machine to make sure you're not getting any errors with your ram. you might want to download and burn an iso of this and make sure you machine is running perfect. go to the prebuilt iso's and download version 4.2. burn it to a disk with something, like nero or roxio. run it at boot and let it do at least 2 passes. firtst pass is 0 and 2nd pass will read as pass 1. when i build a new machine i run this 2 passes before i even put on operating system and it's saved me a lot of headaches.

ps - i'm suspecting some corruption on your system as it should handle jk2 with ease. you shouldn't have any probs with you vid card either.

corruption or conflict with another process.

Draco is supplying the ISO, my RAM is not the problem. I do have a slow HDD, but I think I fixed that before I started installing any other games by just getting the drivers to fix it. Plus my model of HDD is an oddball, but gets the job done. ^^


And I don't have anything wrong with my system, cause everything runs smooth and neat. Only JK2 gives me problems.

maybe jk2 is simply too old?
