what happened to the video

vett · 22 Jul 2013

I just installed zanzarah and the video came up fine until I started to play the game and now I get this. ( see photo)
running windows 7 with nvidia 9400gt card. this worked fine with my other comp. running XP, any ideas?

Hi Vett,

Could be many things, maybe try some different GPU drivers, is the game online?

vett · 22 Jul 2013

All drivers are up to date

paulpicks21 · 22 Jul 2013

Ok, again, is the game an online game?

vett · 22 Jul 2013

no I play on my comp. by myself not an online game

paulpicks21 · 22 Jul 2013

Ok, can I make a suggestion, this is just to rule out the 9400gt going bad, can you try the game using the onboard graphics of your CPU? I believe it has HD 2000.

vett · 22 Jul 2013

I don't think the 9400gt is bad as it works fine with other games that are more complex, as for the onboard I don't see it anywhere

Maybe try reinstalling the game then? Does the game have support for Windows 7? It's pretty old right?

vett · 22 Jul 2013

not sure how old it is at least a couple of years. maybe not for win. 7

Is this it - ZanZarah: The Hidden Portal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ? Looks like it's 11 years old.
