Shandalar used to work great, now crashes
Posted: 13 Aug 2011, 16:14
I have installed only the official "Microprose Magic the Gathering 2010 Custom Installer ISO" and only the "CCGHQ Microprose DOTP Custom ISO Update". I only play and only am interested in playing Shandalar and nothing else.
I had it installed and was playing it for a year or more and never had any problems, went to play it today and boom, error trying to start "Shandalar.exe" and when I try to run "MTGLauncher.exe" nothing happens but no error message. All other executable files work fine and I even played through a sealed deck tournament.
The error is:
"Magic:The Gathering Duel has stopped working" immediately after trying to launch.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall from scratch and messed with the compatibility settings again, no luck.
The computer is in it's original state from when it worked except the usual windows and video card updates, which I'm guessing one of which such updates may have broke it?
I'm running registered Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit edition.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really love this game.
Thanks!
