I solved my problem, but I doubt many want to do the same as I did. I was sick of XP x64 anyways, so I removed it from Linux and reinstalled a 32 bit copy of Windows instead, and now after reinstalling my retail copy of the EE it works perfectly. Must have been some conflict within Windows...

I've tried this as well, but with no success. Glad to hear it helped you though.

What I was saying was that the link you had provided to Microsoft's site is for Vista, so I can't use that, and threfore it won't help with my problem unfortunately. I'm running XP, and I can't get the game working.

Yeah, can't install that myself, I'm running XP x64. Ah well. Hopefully I'll get to play this soon...

No effect, but then again, the game wasn't getting that far in the first place.

That's funny, the back of my box says right on it: "Enhanced For: 64-Bit, Multi-Core".

Hm, my .bif files are not empty either. Maybe there are a few variations on this bug. Decided to attach my PC Wizard report. 0042427a was my offset, if it helps.The Witcher Crash Log==============================================Build: 1.4.5.1280 (08/02/08 18:56:25)Exception...

A number of us have posted about it in a different thread, http://www.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?topic=16968.0, and I suspect our problem is not the EAX issue others are having. The people having the audio problem have one set of information coming up in their error box, whereas those of us...

I don't think getting a box copy of the EE will help. That's what I have and it doesn't start. How did you check the files to see that they had nothing in them? I could check mine and confirm whether it's also a problem with the box or if my problem is different from the others.

I'm also having this error. Black screen on load up, crash to desktop. No changes to my sound hardware accel will make any difference. Latest DirectX, widescreen monitor, WinXP Pro x64 SP2. Using the US boxed retail version of the EE, and I've never owned the original.

Dxdiag seems to modify those settings, as it was at Standard when I checked. I tried changing to each of the other levels of acceleration, but with no success. I suspect I'm having a different problem.When I tried running it at first, I got the no-DVD error, but cleaning my system up a bit and...

I'm also having the Black Screen crash issue with the EE, but changing my sound settings in dxdiag does nothing for me.
