black and white install problem

[Curly_Q]

Tried to install Black&White on my PC, but the game doesn't even load. Uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times with no luck. I can install other games and they play fine. Have all the latest driver updates. DirectX version 9.0.

is it retail or copy?

dont kill me for sounding patronising but if it installs did u try patching it before u attempt to run it?

also when u say doesnt load, B&W has a part when loading where the screen goes black for about 30secs and it looks like its crashed.. this isnt yur prob is it?

finally... B&W is a useless game that was hyped to the moon and back. personally I think your lucky not to be put through the hell of hearing this constantly "we need more food" i almost threw the pc out the window and any other player of B&W prollyy knows what I mean.

well it couldn't have been as bad as dungeon siege. I think they should issue an offical warning against that game. (and I'm going to kick the person that gave me the game in the balls for it)

A complete waste of my time, and I was inbetween school and a job and was bored stiff, yet I still found it a waste of my time. I kept on playing hoping for it to improve.... THAT WAS STUPID!


If all else fails: Read The Manual

Oh common.. it was fun for a while.

that constant wipser of *death* was eerie.
