Moonshadow 0 Posted September 21, 2005 This has probably come up before, but I am havig trouble getting Generals to start in XP. The game asks me to log in with administrator privileges. I already have. The FAQ recommends right-clicking and trying "Run As" and doing Administrator from there. I already have. They recommended a new admin account, and installing it afresh there. Nadda. Same error. EA tech support examined my DXDiag and found several DLLs missing, and suggested reinstalling DirectX 9.0c. I did that, and it still asks me to get admin privileges. Right now, I am going up the wall, and am desperate to play my new game (I bought it a few days ago). Can someone help someone who has tried seemingly everything? Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted September 22, 2005 Do you have problems starting other games? And what are your system specs? Also have a look through the info at http://free.hostdepartment.com/s/skyhigh911/generals.html, lots of troubleshooting tips there. Share this post Link to post
Moonshadow 0 Posted September 22, 2005 I looked at that site but there was nothing helpful. Thanks anyway. As for specs, I have 756 MB RAM, 2.8 Ghz P4, ATi Radeon 9600 Pro, Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 2 and DirectX 9.0c, latest version. Renegade gave me the same problem, but it didn't use to a few months ago. Share this post Link to post
