Hi, I've just purchased a system and am having a little trouble getting Quake 4 to run in Ultra High, 1600 x whatever.
I spared no expense on the hardware ....
ATI X1800XT, AMD X2 4800, Asus A8N-SLI Premium, 550W PS, 2 GIG RAM (Kingston - from the HCL of the Asus board).
I've not overclocked or anything.
Once it is finished loading a saved game, instead of seeing a "Click here to continue", the game exits and I'm back in Windows. There is an error in the event log which tells me very little.
"The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: 7. "
I'm using the Catalyst 5.12 drivers. I've not tried 5.13 yet (posted today) but there is no mention in the release notes on fixing anything for Quake.
I've never had to chase this type of thing down before.
Any ideas?
