Garrulous Glaahk MrRoivas Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Just tonight I wanted to play some good ol' Geneforge. When I clicked the icon, it immediately crashed and said "unhandled exception C0000005 at address 00447903" Tried G2. "unhandled exception C0000005 0042892a" G4. Crashes without error prompt. Same with A5. Geneforge 5 and Avadon and Avernum 6 demo still working. And yes, I have tried redownloading the Geneforge 1 and 2 demo. No dice. OS: Windows 7 Processor: Intel i5 2400 VCard: 560 Ti Driver: Unchanged since when it last worked Edit: Just tried the G3 demo, which has never been on my computer before. Got an unhandled exception error. Also tried Avernum 1 demo, the old version. Worked without a hitch. Seems to be a problem specific to both the games using the old G1, G2 and G3 engine, as well as the one powering A4, A5 and G4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 If you have Win7 Pro/Ultimate, try running them in Windows XP mode. Alternately, if you have a spare copy of WinXP or Vista lying around, create a virtual machine using VirtualBox or something similar, and install them there.

Garrulous Glaahk MrRoivas Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Its fixed. Had to do a system restore to a few days earlier. No idea why. But they're fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
