Thief Gold

Kom igen... jag vill kunna installera spelet... och det borde ju fungera!

Fan svara någon då!!

Prova uppdatera DirectX du kanske har en jäättee tidig version

Nej det ´har jag inte! Jag har 9.0 installerade den nyss...
Men jag testade installera demot nu för att se om det fungerade men samma felmedelande kom upp i alla fall...
Och jag fattar inte, jag har inte NT, jag har Xp och 2000!

Kan det vara så att spelet inte går att starta med ett så sent DirectX?
Spelet kräver enligt internet uppgifter:
P200, 32MB, Win95/98, DirectX

I had been trying to get Thief working for a long time in XP. I could get it running, but it would lock up intermittently. Very frustrating. I tried all variations of video/sound acceleration settings, still to no avail. Then up on the Through the Looking Glass Forums, I finally discovered the solution. Dark Engine games don't work in multi-processor/hyperthreading environments! And hyperthreading (making your single processor appear to be two processors) is turned on by default in XP.

In the end, you only need to do two things to get Thief working in XP:
Start -> Run, and execute: d:\setup.exe -lgntforce to install Thief (that's a lower case 'L', by the way. Thief thinks you're trying to install the game in NT, which has insufficient DirectX support, so you have to force it to install)

You need to turn off hyperthreading for Thief. See section above on: Turning off hyperthreading.
