Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow Vista Crash!

Hello Everybody!

When I start Pandora Tomorrow Singleplayer, I see the intro scene, I get to the Main Menu, create a profile, I click Start Game, then the loading screen shows up, but then suddenly my game crashes to my deskup with the message, "splintercell2.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"

This is so weird, because the game ran perfectly on my computer that has Windows XP, but I wont work on my Vista.

Any help is very appreciated!

 

Right click on the icon and choose "Run as Administrator". See if that helps. If nothing else, update your drivers.

What are your specs?

 

Thanks for your fast response, but when I ran it as Administrator, I got this message:

General protection fault!

History: UDareAudioSubsystem::SetViewport <- UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine

I believe my drivers are fully updated, but where can I see my specs?

 

What kind of GPU and CPU do you have?

 

I'm sorry, but I am clearly not very good with Computers. What does GPU and CPU means?

 

GPU- Graphics card
CPU- Central Processing Unit

Your CPU is the "Intel" thing. Maybe Pentium 4, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo, Pentium M, etc.

The GPU will be something along the lines of- Intel X3100, Nvidia (insert here), ATi (insert here.

Are you using Vista or XP?

 

I am using Vista, but where do I check what my CPU and GPU is called?

 

Start-Control Panel-Classic View-Welcome Center

It will tell you all the basic info right there.

 

Here's a link to a picture I took of my screen, I believe that should answer your questions, but honestly I'm not really sure what I'm showing you.

Please don't mind the foreign language, I'm European.

 

Now go to Start, Right Click "Computer", Click "Manage", Click "Device Manager", Click "Display Adapter" (it should drop down), what does it say the display adapter is?

 

Again, I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to show you, so I hope this picture will do. I guess the Icons are the same in the English version, so you can use those as a clue to know what you're looking for.

I really appreciate you trying to help me with this - thanks!

 

The picture cut off the icon I needed. It's the one right under the Processors tab.

 

Mobile Intel (R) 945GM Express Chipset Family - Could that be the one?

 

I'm guessing it's the X3100. Do you not have the box? What is the model of your notebook?

 

The 945GM is the GMA 950 (X3100 would be 9 65GM). With 1GB of RAM and a GMA 950 on Vista, I think you're going to be hard pressed to play SC T at an acceptable framerate even if it would run; there's no reason to sugarcoat it: the GMA 950 is an absolutely terrible GPU, and the bare-minimum amount of RAM isn't going to do it any favors.

Nonetheless, try updating to the latest drivers, found here. It's worth a shot.

 

Sorry LowlyMarine, guess I should have used my own advice and "Used Google". I'm not too familiar with the Intel chipsets...
