the russian 0 Posted March 3, 2007 So I installed and re installed both Red2 and Yuris Revenge several times and each time i try to launch Yuries Revenge it goes to a black screen that the error message appears saying that the file Gamemd.exe is the reason for the error. I than tried deleting this file 5 times and it keep returning to my computer and I keep getting the same error. I installed all the latest pacthes but it still refuses to work. Just wondering if anyone else has had this same problem and if there is a way to fix it. Thanks Share this post Link to post
sith_wampa 6 Posted March 4, 2007 Why the hell did you delete that file?!?!??!! That is the file that is used to open the game, and if you deleted it, the shortcut doesn't know what to do... :roll: noob... Share this post Link to post

Sonic 293 Posted March 5, 2007 Just right click on the files and/or shortcut to file at select properties. Then click on Compatibility tab. Here is a screen shot, I don't have RA2 installed right now but its the same for any file you want to set Compatibility modes for. Share this post Link to post

coehlen 0 Posted May 27, 2007 Set game.exe, ra2.exe, ra2md.exe and gamemd.exe to Windows98 compatability. That ought to do it. Why all of them ? Why not only the "icon", where you launch the game ? Share this post Link to post
