    Unhappy StarTrek - Starfleet Command III, Problem please help.

    Hello all,

    Im having a problem with SFC3, it keeps booting me to the desktop.
    It loads the intro movies and the game options menu screens ok, it even lets me configure the game graphic options. However when ever I try to start actually playing the game, thats when it cuts out and ends up on the desktop. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this ?

    I have the following installed on my system, the bottem two I have just downloaded to try and fix this problem, but they have had no effect.

    ATI Catalyst Ver. 3.9
    DirectX 9.0b
    Windows XP HotFix (SP2) Q327979 (For game hanging/ stopping fix)
    Acitvision Game Update - SFC3 DirectX 9 Fix (To allow SFC3 to be played on DX9 systems)


    Cheers, Dave.

    I had this problem with Diablo 2 and Mafia.

    To fix the problem with Diablo 2 all I done was change my monitor driver to plug and play, may be worth a shot. Also update the drivers to Catalyst 4.3 (Latest ones available).

    Other than that, you may need to do a format and clean Windows install. It was the only way I could get Mafia to work.
