Can't run on Netbook
Posted: June 9th, 2011, 11:27 pm
I know this may seem silly but I'm trying to run Eschalon: Book II on my little Netbook whilst out and about. I can run Book I just fine but when I click on Launch Game in the Book II launcher one of two things happens depending on settings.
If I run Book II in windowed mode it opens a window that can't be resized and cuts off the bottom of the screen across BOOK II so that it only displays the top half of BOOK and down to Credits on the menu to the right.
If I run the game in full screen mode the desktop flickers a bit and then a Windows Exception EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION error appears.
I have a system that meets the min specs -
Windows 7 Home premium 64bit.
AMD Dual Core E-350
AMD ATI Radeon 6300 GPU
All drivers and OS are latest versions. I suspect that it may be because the screen has a maximum resolution of 1024x600 but the min specs mention nothing of minimum resolutions.
If nothing can be done to get it working on my Netbook then oh well, I'll just have to stick to playing it on my Desktop but these games are good to play if you are out and about and need to chew up some time.
Thanks.
