Sometime ago, I installed Farcry retail version & installed Farcry v1.3 Patch over it (2 months to be precise).
I have DirectX 9.0c installed.
I was using Nvidia drivers v71.89 then.
The game ran fine. After playing the game, I uninstalled it.
Now I'm using Nvidia drivers v77.72.
Now when I reinstalled the game (without the patch), it didn't start.
I mean, when I start the game, a black screen shows up & then nothing else comes up. When I press a button on keyboard or mouse, it comes back to windows.
I even installed the patch/update but still with same results.
I don't have patch v1.33 cos it's too big & I only have a dial-up connection.
But I don't think I need v1.33 cos the game was running fine previously with/without patch v1.3.
So the problem has to be something else.
So, kindly help.
P.S. I have posted this same thread in Q&A hoping anyone from these two forums maybe able to help me.
