    System crashes while playing anno 1404

    Sup gamers, I have recently upgraded my computer and following is the specification :-
    • Processor: Intel core2 duo 3GHz
    • Motherboard: GA-X38-DQ6
    • Graphic card: Nvidia 9800GT
    • Ram: 4 GB

    The operating system on the computer is Windows 7 64 bit. On this computer I have installed Anno 1404 game but I am not able to play the game. The System crashes while playing anno 1404. Whenever the game is started on the computer, it shows that the game is starting but then the game terminates. So if anybody knows how to solve the problem, please share the information. Any help is highly appreciated.

    There must be some problem with the version of the game which is installed on the computer. All the applications which are installed on the computer have lot of files which are associated to it. If any of the files which is associated to the application is corrupt or missing on the computer then the application will not work properly. To solve such problem, you will have to replace all the files which are missing or corrupt on the computer. Uninstall the game and remove all the files/keys which are associated to the game. Once all the traces of the application are removed, reboot the computer and install the game again.

    Windows 7 operating system does not support all the games which are supported by Windows XP operating system. If the game is not supported by the operating system then the game will either not run at all or will give some problems while running. The list of all the games which are supported by Windows 7 operating system is available on the official website. Check the list and see if the game which you are trying to play is supported by the operating system or not. If the game is not supported then there is nothing much you can do about it.

    Check if the drivers for the graphic adapter are installed and working properly on the computer. All the devices which are connected to the computer require a set of drivers to be installed on the computer. Drivers act as the mediator between the operating system and the device. If the drivers are not installed on the computer the device will not work properly. To check if the drivers are installed and working properly, right click on my computer and select Device manager. Highlight the display adapter and if there is any caution sign then you will have to follow the troubleshooting procedure. If troubleshooting does not help, then try and update the drivers.

    Try configuring the graphic card and see if the game works. Sometimes the configuration of the graphic card conflicts with the graphic settings of the game. If such situation occurs then the game will not work properly. The Nvidia graphic cards are configured to run all the high end graphic editing applications. These settings conflict with the graphic settings of the game due to which the game does not work. Go to the graphic properties and click on Manage 3D settings. Disable the following features of the graphic card and see if the game works properly.
    Triple buffering
    Vertical sync.
    Anistropic filtering.
    After disabling the above features save the settings and see if the game works.
