Try reinstalling the game. How are you installing it? Legally, with the discs? That message is a common message for any quake 3 engine based game... I've gotten it in SoF2 in the past. It was because I jacked with my config file or just pulled the SoF2 folder from another computer and was missing some files or something... it was an easy fix.

Also make sure you have the latest drivers for that card. Go to www.ati.com for those. Also make sure you have direct x 8.1 or later installed (yes I know its ogl but the game requires at least dx8.1 for direct input and audio). might as well get dx9.0c... www.microsoft.com for that.

Me: are you saying I can't provide?
Me: cause I know I can provide.
Me: oh and I can provide money too;)
Rachel:): why do we need money when we can just stay in our room and have sex all day?
