I have tried to run this game wit 3da 2.31,but still no success.a 32mb hw&tl card is required,so it shouldnt be a problem with force software tl on,I have tried some other settings too but it didnt help.the game launches a black window,and drops me to desktop after a second.with 3da,I get the same thing.any suggestions?

Hi Chaps,

Hope you had a great new year's celebration! I don't know what to think about homeworld 2 anymore, look at this link:

That's what those guys think. I downloaded the latest DivX player still a no-go and quite honestly I am starting to think that it profits me more to get rid of Homeworld 2 than it does to get rid of my Voodoos.  

It is worth pointing out that the guy who had the problem has only got a 64mb Geforce.  Maybe HW2 likes 128mb of RAM before it thinks of actually starting up? I think this is NAFF. I have had too much aggro for one game and if I didn't want to buy a radeon anyway I would sling it out. But since the price is right if I can get the card that I want then I will try it out. Grr@sierra.  Major nafo deployment of a popular game.
