Raw Thrills terminator salvation help

[bravesirchris]

So i need some help with a Raw Thrills terminator salvation, the game will just not load.

I've reinstalled the game on to the PC ( dell optiplex 740) game installs without any problem.

I have swapped the graphic card, hard drive in the PC.

I have also tried swapping the I/0 board in the machine with no luck.

The game just sits on the loading screen.

Anyone have any ideas of advice

I have no experience with this particular machine but I am a computer tech. If the issue is with the Dell computer, I suspect it could be a RAM issue. Have you tried replacing it?

Also maybe try a replacement PSU as this could also cause lockup issues.

do you have the security key plugged into the back? It needs to be plugged into the same port it was in during installation usually, not sure about that game specifically. Another thing to do is to check that all of the BIOS settings are correct. Does that game have a parallel port security key? if so, you may need to edit the port settings.

so the game uses a USB security dongle which I did have plug in the same usb port when i reinstalled the game. ( but i will do it again tomorrow just to check).

one other thing is did you swap the graphics card with the exact same one as was in there before? If it's not one that the game install has the drivers for you may need to install the drivers separately?

Check to make sure the port is operational

ok, but i'm asking what card did you use to swap? You can't just use any card you want, it has to be one that the game has drivers for.

got the game back and up and working, it turns out it was the Video card in the end.
