EE1 goes to blank screen after intro movies play
Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2012 5:16 pm
I have a new DELL Computer... windows 7 64bit. I have Directx 11. I haven't had any success running EE1 on this new machine. Then I heard about GOG.COM, where EE is compatiable with windows 7. I downloaded it. Everything installed fine, however, when I go to launch the game, after the intro movies play, my screen goes blank (dark gray). I can still hear click when I hit the button. The REAL strange think is..., it didn't work the first day I installed it, however, when I tryed it the 2nd day the game launched fine. I thought I was out of the woods. Then the next day, it nolonger worked again. It is always going to a blank screen after the movies play. I have tryed running as administrator, and tryed a couple of different compatibility modes. I love this game, have been playing it for 7 years. Now that I have window 7, I was hoping GOG would allow me to start playing it again. Anyone have any suggestions? HELP PLEASE
