Seems like a frequent issue with this game running on newer graphics drivers. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2979733

I recall Risk II (best game I ever got from a cereal box) being really finnicky when I installed on windows 7. It had to be running on 1280x768 or lower resolution or it would crash, and the avi files hated my computer, so I needed a '-noavi' flag to run it. Old games are particularly prone to these compatibility issues. Sacred outright refuses to run on 64-bit systems. Not even an error message. Just a message from the design team that they don't think it can run. 64-bit is backwards compatible (Program Files x86, etc.)....

Odds are, the solution is to change your resolution. If that doesn't fix...

Hi,
Thank you for the prompt respond.Because the single player is crushing on me from the very beggining can not get to the point of changing the resolution of the game.So I dawnloaded a patch from Steam Community webpage wich is replacing the the original patch.It does work but when I press play I get the error cannot write to hunkusage.dat!Any way of making SP from the original pack start working so I can change the resolution or how to eliminate the error from the dawnloaded patch?

Glad to hear you've made some progress! Now, try changing your Microsoft Windows resolution in the Control Panel. Most older games take 1280x768 because that was the best available through a VGA cord. The problem you are having with 'hunkusage.dat' is that it is likely read-only. You will need to locate that particular file and ensure that Permissions are set to read & write.

Why would you need a keygen?
