have a gt250 NVidea card and am trying to run F18 under XP and all of its compatibility choices. Card memory is 1 GB and system memory is 4 GB.

I actually got the game to run once or twice, but almost every time, I get a "sorry message" that an error occurred and the game couldn't run.

I have installed the TSH program and I get the TSH screen and then the bomb.

Can some one send me what settings they use for a NVidea card. I have to believe that my problems have something to do with the card settings. I have installed the 260 drivers for the card.

I have tried all screen resolutions in TSH and in the game and synced them all to no avail.

I couldn't figure out how to upload the readtabe files so here are 2 of them. The first one is from the exe in the mod subfolder and the second one is from the exe in the root game folder.
