Hello there, i just played true the new wolfenstein game and i absolutly loved it! so i bought the old one: Return to the castle wolfenstein. tho im having huuge problems whit it.

First off system:

Motherboard: Asus M2N-eSLI
Graphic card: geforce 8800gt
System: W7 RC 64bit, Build 7100
Nvidia driver: 191.07
Just updated the Direct X

The thing is when i start the game, it instantly shuts down and i get message that WolfSP.exe stopped working. When i try the multiplayer mode the screen just goes gray?

ps: i only care about the single player, i know w7 got problems whit punkbuster but i do not care, i just want to play the single player

And yes i got all the newest patches, tryed reinstalling whit no patches, tryed all compatible modes etc. and run as admin

Any 1 know a fix for this? Quake and css, etc Works perfectly.

sorry to state/ask the obvious, but maybe there's a problem with that particular combination of game and driver version?

i don't know myself, as i'm an ati man, but it's not at all uncommon for new drivers to cause more problems than they fix.

try reverting back to the working drivers, especially if windows update updated them - this has also been known to cause problems.

sorry i can't be of more help - good luck.

I tried to install the original like you, on my system as it's a great game.
I had the same result as you too, unfortunately.

I had the same problem, but found the fix at the game forum.

Go to Nvidia Control Panel, "Manage 3D settings", "Set Extension Limit to" ON

It should work fine now.

Yeah, I keep having that here all the time on my rig, my setup is as follows:

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
8GB DDR3-1600
Phenom II x4 955
ATI HD5850
Dell Ultrasharp 24" 2408WFP (1920x1200 res.).

I tried finding if the Catalyst settings could allow for this game, but no matter what I try, it still does the same old routine...and yes, I did download the latest Catalyst version just yesterday.

I mean, jeez, if Quake 3 Arena can run fine on Windows 7 x64, why can't RtCW? They're both on almost identical technology, what gives here? I'm wondering if there's a way to tweak the native resolution through a command line before entering the game. That may work. Anyone have ideas?

I run windows 7 with a ATI mobility radeon card on a laptop and figured I can play RTCW in safe mode... the regular gamelaunch would generate the console saying couldn't open Open GL subsystem....safe mode works for me. Just launch the game from the startmenu.

I get the same, WolfSP.exe has stopped working.
It worked once, I played through the whole game but now it will not work.
It is the steam version so maybe that has to do with it.
