Unknown Error with Windows XP 32bit : Othor Games

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 4:19 am

So I went to load up rage on my system today, my AMD Athalon 2X, GeForce GFX7800 system with 2gigs of RAM runs Windows XP in the most common flavor, 32-bit. Now when I go to run this game, I get an unknown error, something about the Cheat_Cvar failing I am running in steam, and have already tried the "start in windowed" option. This is the log:

The errors your getting are pointing to either improper video card drivers or the card does not support the game.

Problem is your video card is old enough that new drivers may not fix this issue. But, it does not hurt to try, you can always roll back.

I did update recently, I just installed this system, I am also reading that it could be the combination of my 32bit OS on my 64bit Processor, which I sort of need since I have such a small amount of RAM, but if it came down to it I wouldn't be opposed to dual booting windows 7 Just for this game

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 5:05 am

I checked, and my gameresources.resources is not present under dlc2 either!
Mine is under dlc3. :shrug:

So I dunno, that's pretty strange...
I haven't played lately, and have no logs - hopefully someone else can help too?
If you copy your Save files to safety, a re-install might sort the config out, and get you going again...
But what has changed since last time you played (and I assume it worked)?

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 7:34 am

No don't worry; that works just fine. :smile:

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 12:36 pm

I was being told that the 32 bit emulation throws it off a bit, and I haven't played the game on this PC at all, I played it once before on another system though. I am thinking that the Cisco Certified Cat Herder hit the nail on the head with me suffering from incompatibility of the hardware. The video card is marginal with the games release. I will look more for a possibly more up-to-date driver (although I believe that I am on the latest) and see if a roll back might work as a fix.

EDIT: Through further prodding through the file system I have discovered that I don't have very much beyond the H:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/RAGE/dlc/dlc2 Which is quite odd, I only have Virtual Textures, and further more I only have dlc2, no 3 nor the logical preceding 1. If that has any effect on anything. I will run a quick integrity verification, then try a few more options, only then will I do a reinstall

There is an AppID provided by Steam to determine if the user owns the DLC.
(too bad eh?) :tongue:

Don't know if this is a problem or not...?
Just asking because it's refusing to run it.

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 6:38 am

Don't exactly catch what you are getting at with that comment, though if you are saying that I have pirated the game, that is a negatory, bought it just last year I believe on sale. Although it was gifted to me, hah, if that were the problem I would flip. I am still thinking maybe it's the video card.

» Fri Jun 14, 2013 10:51 pm

Yeah but... the game should still launch (and then play crappy).
So it's a virgin game, you have no savefiles?
Or did you move it over, from a different rig...
If you have moved the game, it's apparently not set up for your current rig.

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 7:19 am

No, I spent all night downloading it actually xD it's a clean install, it even has the H drive dedicated to it, created a steam library folder just for it.

» Sat Jun 15, 2013 6:59 am

Yeah me too - I have a 500 GB Caviar Black dedicated to Steam.

Your rig is still 'okay'...

You could pop 4 GB in there, and a new vidcard. :shrug:

Something affordable like a GTX 650, not big cash.

Hey I need a new GTX 660, myself...

You want my GTX 460? It's still a good vidcard.

Anyway, I hope you get your problems sorted...

If you honestly wanted to give that video card to me, I would take it. Other than that I do plan on upgrading when I have the money to do so. I tried the validation and it failed so I will run it again. Thanks for all your help, think I will still post what I find in here for future reference on my setup for others.
