piiia Report post Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Hey all , i had a few problems with my own laptop lately, so i borrowed one from a friend. today i wanted to install EL here but i cant get it running. this is an acer aspire 3003 WLMi using WinXp Home Edition, with the graphic card: SiS M760 GX. ok i will try to explain how far i come i can install EL without any problems. i can chose a language and i can read the rules. then i can logg on and see piiia where i left her in the NC storage, but then the client crashes right away and i get this message: Eternal-Lands Client hat ein Problem festgesstellt und muss beendet werden. sorry for the german but it means something like EL-client found a problem and has to be shut down..

korrode Report post Posted January 31, 2010 Piiia grab the latest driver fof SiS M760GX, just go here: http://www.sis.com/download/ select: "Windows XP" -> "IGP Graphics Drivers" -> "SiS66x/SiS76x & SiS67x" Then click "Go" The first result (atm) is "R391_logo.zip", that's what you want. Download that, extract it to a folder somewhere, and run Setup.exe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lartherel Report post Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Hey Piiia use please this driver: http://www.acer.de/acer/service.do?Languag...;CRC=1106555572 I guess you know how to install Open your settings and enable in the first step 'poor man', disable the sound and enable the 'ati mouse bug' too.

korrode Report post Posted February 1, 2010 hi korrode, first thx for the help, but it doesnt work.. when i run the setup it tells me that the setup cant find a driver for my laptop and closes now any suggestions? EDIT: ok i downloaded the second driver in the list korrode linked me too.. the first one was for the SiS 760 GX. but i needed the SiS M 760 GX Hmmm that's weird cause although under "Supported Products" on the site it doesn't actually say M760GX, the documentation with the driver (i downloaded it and had a look) said it did support it... If none of the drivers there work Piiia, and the drivers off Acer's site don't, then most likely that IGP/GPU simply can't run EL :\ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gilrain Report post Posted February 1, 2010 maybe you could try to enable 'poor man' option at the INI file already before starting ? that chip might be too low end though..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
