Dargor, which version are you playing with? Are you playing with the latest patch (1.34) applied?

I Just Got this game and had the same problems.
I tried everything on this forum.
It seems the game works fine without the Patch, but with the patch installed it will not load and crashes to desktop. I'm on an XP Athlon, Geforce 4 MX 420.
The patch installation process also gives me 1 error.(at work now so can't check it).
Any ideas?
Should I try an earlier patch. Can play without one I suppose.

Thanks in Advance.

That would most likely be why the game is not working. Did you shut down all non essential programs (such as anti virus) before installing the patch? If you have Windows XP, did you install from an account with administrative privileges?

Ah yes and i don't know why but my recent save games only load like 89% and game crash, i think i'll have to reinstall the game, the worse thing in this game is: "You can't have programs in background", without this, the game is amazing.

If the game itself loads, but particular saves do not, then the problem could be;

[*] the files / save folder could be marked as read-only (if it was backed up to CD-R then restored), in which case you can select all of the files, right click, select properties and clear the read-only flag

[*] there could be a corrupt file in the save. Depending on which file is corrupt, it may be fixable, or it may be replaceable with a corresponding one from the next most recent working save (that could cause other problems, though they might be fixable or avoidable).

[*] there could be files missing from the saved game folder (in '..\Divine Divinity\Run\savegames'). A new game should have 22 files, after going to either Verdistis or the Dark Forest it should have 27, after going to both it should have 32, and after getting to the wastelands it should have 37. Missing files may be replaceable.

i don't use admin privilages and my virus protection or anything else is not running. Is the patch really worth all this trouble?

With winxp, nt or 2000 you'll need admin privilages to install the most part of programs what you can buy.

You only need admin priviliges if you set them.
I am the superuser so i don't need that.
