I tryed reinstalling, and it's not my comp, I tryed FOUR YEAR OLD computer, it worked, but it won't run on mine.

The obvious solution into stick with the 4 year old comp because ya new one just isnt liking this game.

When you reinstall delete spring and then install a fresh copy with no remnants of the old spring. I'm not very familiar with SIS video cards, if it's possible there is a more recent driver update I would try it. I think you already told me you tried this but do your testing for functionality with all graphics options turned to minimum, if it doesn't work on minimum settings then we can verify that it isn't any of the advanced shaders crashing the game.

For referance of other people trying to help the game crashes at the display where it says loading sky, which is the last step before launching to ingame.

Could you list the hardware specifications of the machine aside from just the video card? You never know what might be the problem...

Ram: 480
Make: Compaq
CPU: 3.1
Windows: 3.1 Service Pack 2
I do NOT think it is my graphics card.

I have tryed that.

Why do you think Spring would run on Windows 3.1?

3.1 doesnt have a service pack, he probly means xp

I've got something, I've found out that the SiS 760 card is chtt.
But. It sould still work. If I turn on "3D Trees", TASpring will crash, same way, no waring, before sky, now, it crashes on ground/trees.

The 'old spring', the 'old old spring', and the 'other one'...they all work.
lol

I wonder if TAspring 06.** is still downloadable?

That's why 3D Trees are marked as "needs vertex program".

Spring RTS Engine
