Game not loading? FIXED!

FIXED!!

 

Game not loading at all?? No error message? If this is happening to you, like it has happened to me, then just follow the steps I give below and it should fix it.

 

Everytime I write in for help, they ask for my dxdiag, so I thought I'd take a look at what is in there myself. At this point I thought it had something to do with my sound card. Then I noticed hardware acceleration was disabled, I turn it back on and...it worked! It brought a tear of joy to my eye. Here is how to do it...

 

Go to Start>>Run...>>type "dxdiag" in box without quotes>>Display tab>>Direct 3D acceleration. If that is disabled, its most likely your problem, enable it, and run the test to be sure. Exit, and enjoy Vice City :colgate:

 

Well, Im off to play Vice City, I've waited long enough! Good luck! and if that doesnt work, leave a post, I might have another solution.

Well, my "display" tab has all of my Direct 3D Accelerations, etc on and enabled.  And my game still does not run.  I can view the introduction movie but get hung-up at the 2-D screen that looks like the cover of the box (with the Miles logo in the top right).  Anyone else have any ideas?
