Guest Caddi17 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 hey, i was wondering if someone would be able to help me with a probleme that i have. When i go to start my game, it pops up a black screen then goes back to windwos almost instantly. i have been able to play this game ever since version 1.4 of the l.a. mod and it stoped working suddenly. If someone who knows what the problem is can help me that would be greatly appreciated. I have provided my logfile and my dxdiag file to help with solving the problem.

MikeyPI Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Copy the cfg file to your desktop, edit the values to 800x600, then save it. then move it back to the root directory of the game.Next, make sure Emergency4.exe or whichever version you have has the proper permissions (make it run as an administrator).You have vista and I am pretty sure this is probrably your problem.
