Spearhead and Breakthrough problems

Lt. Striker · Post by **Lt. Striker** » Sun Jun 06, 2004 1:43 am

I had to format my computer because it got really messed up, errors/maybe a virus. I couldn't do anything on it. Well anyways I reinstalled Allied Assault, Spearhead, and Breakthrough(got the patches for them too, etc). Well then I tried to run Breakthrough and the main menu and all the other graphics were all grey so you couldn't see anything. I sent my problem to the EA technicians and they said to make sure all the programs are shutoff before playing the game(Everyone always does that), and change this one setting in dxdiag. I did and still it doesn't work, but he did say something about BIOS though and disabling something on there but I'm not sure how or what to do. The weird thing is that Allied Assault works but not SH or BT? Any ideas because this is really messed up. Thanks guys.

Errors in the console? Directx version ok? Try minimizing the settings on your vid card, update the drivers for them as well. Try running SH and BT in safe mode...

Yeah I tried all those and SH and BT don't work. I have a Nvidia TnT2 video card with the newest driver for it. I can move the mouse on the menu but the menu is all grey, oh and the game doesn't play all of the intro videos.

I believe to the problem is the Windows version...

The ME do not enable much efects of the video card. Not able more than 90% and delete much menu of the video card drive...

I prefer windows 3.11 of the windows ME...

Windows ME too not enable much efects of the sound card...

Is possible the problem is not in the Windows ME. But i am certain to you have much problems on the computer because this Windows...

I recomender install Windows 98 second edition or Windows XP...

Is possible to it do not help you in the problem of the MOHAA but it help you in much problems...

But first delete the all Medal of Honor and reinstall the Medal of Honor Allied Assault and test. If found reinstall the Medal of Honor Spearhead. If found install the Medal of Honor Breakthrough...

Thanks!!!

Windows 3.11? That's a bit outdated don't you think?
