MM7 crashing at startup, please help!

Unread postby Mace the Councillor » 28 Jun 2006, 10:48

Hi!

I played this game once and I loved it, and for nostalgic reasons, I'd like to play it again. I have changed computer. My last one ceased to work, and I got a new, more powerful one.
Installation works just fine, but when the game is supposed to start, it crashes, and I get a small window saying that MM7 has encountered a problem and must terminate (well, or something like that, I translated from Swedish). What is worse, I cannot get any support. The 3DO company is bankrupt. I managed to download the patch v. 1.1 from GameSpot and installed it, but that didn't fix the problem.

My computer has Windows XP, but my previous one did, too, and it worked perfectly fine there, so I know that is not what is at fault.

Do you have any idea what I might do? Where can I get support?

Oh, thank the heavens for you, man! The unofficial XP patch did it...
