Hi Grim Knight:

Here are more details:

1. I get no error message, except for when the game first crashed which was insufficient memory. Now the game simply won't start and all I get is a black screen for a few seconds and then I am on my desktop.

2. I have not installed anything recently including patches. In fact, a couple of months back I did a new load of windows and the system is quite clean.

3. I am using XP Home SP2.

4. The first reload I simply reinstalled. The second reload I uninstalled, moved all folders except one or two game files, and then reinstalled. I will try a complete reinstall momentarily.

5. Shrapnel emailed and suggested that I delete all files in my windows temp folder -- this did not work.

6. The PC seems stable and functioning in all other respects except for Dom2. I read somewhere that the SP2 can affect some games, but since I have not had this issue previously it seems an unlikely cause.

7. I also did a system restore to a couple of days ago when the game worked. No luck.

I hope this info helps.
