Cannot start a game

Post by maackey »

I've managed to play one game to test out the new version of spring, and then when I added some productivity widgets I could not host and got the same error over and over. I reinstalled everything, after moving my maps/mods and deleting the directory, and still got the same error:

A pop up window: spring.exe - Application Error
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005).
Click OK to terminate the application.

This is the information I get from windows error if it helps...

If anybody could help me I would be very grateful and appreciative.

Edit: Oh, I almost forgot. This is on Windows Vista, 7600gt, amd2.4 dual core, 2gb ram

This is probably frivolous, but if you have UAC enabled, did you remember to clear out the Compatibility Files folder associated with Spring before you reinstalled?

No, I don't have UAC enabled, it was one of the first things I turned off :wink:
