In game videos borked

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hi,

I had GalCiv2: DA working for about 8 minutes before something went wrong. I think I gathered my first anomaly when it showed me a video. Most of the video was blank. Only the bottom right corner of the video was visible. It seemed to be playing fine, but about 75% of the window was not showing. It wasn't covered by anything, it just wasnt displaying the video. So far everything else in the game looks fine. Also, the video wasn't shrunk, it was cropped, so it was basically impossible to see what it was a video of.

Please go to C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2 (or wherever you installed the game at), open the debug.err file you find there in notepad, and copy/paste the contents into a post here. If this is a DA report, you'll find the debug in C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2\DarkAvatar instead. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.

Update your video drivers to the latest available on ATI's website. If you still have the problem after that, try disabling anti-aliasing.

It's less likely to be the problem, but you should also update your sound drivers from their manufacturer's site as well, as they're quite old.

probably an integrated soundchip. They seldom update those so I quess that won't be the problem. Can it be a codec/bink player problem?
