AO the classic"Eaw has stopped working windows is searching for a solution....Wahat's weird is is unzipped Jells1.40 and that ran ok in my downloads folder..Whats strange is 1.28has been running sweet going to work on it some more.I'll try the usual troubleshooting steps and see what falls out.
OK I had EAW's installed to c:\Flight\EAW.. doesn't run there but move them to C:\EAW 1.4 and C:\EAW 1.28 and both have been working flawlessly so I'm happy...This means a lot to me.My mate passed awhile back and when I wake up in the pits I fly to get over the blues.

Tony I got several other sims on that folder and they run good.But I have running EAW's that's all I wish...When I did try win 10 briefly I found I couldn't run some of my older war titles that I enjoy from time to time.I'm able to run EAW ok in win 7 just a laggy mouse but I can live with it.EA runs ok on Win & just have to ron at 1024x768 to get good framerates.I've been thinking a lot today about biting the bullet or not ..Only big problem I had before was 23 or so temp files showed up on my C:\ and I couldn't delete them.
OK having a horrible day here Got my Win 10 cdthat I burned and going for it I know I got 30 days to roll it back Maybe the updates have improved it ..I got enough stuff that I know run on it ok..Matrix Games titles.Takin' the dive

Yes that's what I'm using the latest glide 3 and it runs very well both 1.28 and Tony's 1.40 mp...My whole problem was the C;\Flight\EAW for a strange reason they wouldn't run Final fix was rename it to C:\Sims\EAW and all run very well.Tried out Win 10 yesterday but it doesn't seem to play nice on my rig so back to win 7 and flying fine.And as I see here EAW is only getting better.
One question nowhere in my config does it say D3D or Glide,in the (Graphics section,,,,I'm using the in game config screen to set it to glide..Just curious to what the ini line looks like

Tony; Thanks for the clarification heres what I have [GRAPHICS] Width=1280 Height=1024 TestDrawPrimitive=0 DisplayDevice=0 Which I was sure was good because I'm using your 1.4MP config Just modified to my native windows res.It's all running sweet as long as I changed the install dir.Having an enjoyable time experimenting with the 1.40 dirset picker.I'm using the lastest nglide and get the 3dfx logo when it starts a mission so all is sweet.Thanks for the help
