I've re-installed the original Deus Ex after not playing irt for a year or so; however, despite the fact that it ran well last time on the same system, it simply doesn't work this time - if I run it in Direct3D mode, it freezes right after the CD-check, gives me a blank full-screen and I cannot get out of it in any way but a reboot; in OpenGL or Software modes, it still freezes but I can get out of it using Alt+Ctrl+Del.
My System Specs:
- Pentium-4, 2.8GHz
- 256MB DDR RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, 128MB graphical RAM
- WinXP with Service Pack 2
- Deus Ex with the full 1.112 Multiplayer/Single Player Patch
What I've tried so far is:
- Uninstall Deus Ex and make sure the directory is deleted, then reboot and re-install
- Play without the Patch or with it
- Deus Ex safe mode without sound
- Direct3D mode, OpenGL mode, Software mode
Niether worked...
