New Computer

Post by tmoj2000 »

So while playing BA2 my comp just gave up on me and died (I am not suggesting BA2 is at fault :)

I am getting a new one and thus have to reinstall all of BA1 + BA2 (and panzer corp) modules

My mind boggles at the extent of the task

Is there a way to do it easily ? ( for example if the hard drive of the dead comp is salvaged can the stuff be copied across to the new drive?)

You will need to install them from the installers otherwise some of the setup will not be correct. Sorry!

Cheers

Here's a new question

We 've managed to revive my old comp.... Panzer corp runs fine but both BA1 and BA2 lock up on the load screen and never complete the load (they both used to work fine)....... What could the reason be ?

Could be a host of issues on a troubled PC. Bad sectors on the hard drive just one of several possibilities. Registry errors for another. Try reinstalling.

Could be the video card as PzC doesn't use any 3D hardware etc.
