Game Doesn't Run GTX 480

[nakedsquirrel]

I upgraded my graphics card from a GTS 250 to a GTX 480, and IL2 CoD will no longer run on my computer. The game crashes when I try to start it up. Does anyone with a GTX 480 have a conf.ini that they can post so that I try to use that to run the game.

Thanks

Thanx for the link but it is no longer downloadable at the link or the makers home page reads it is discontinued.

Any other possible way we can fix the problem? What is the Problem we are trying to fix anyway?

Win 7 64Bit, I7, GTX 480, 12GB RAM...

Thanx much,

Try Googling other download locations like http://www.softpedia.com/get/Securit...-Sweeper.shtml

Drivercleaner is a similar program.

I have a GTX480. It runs the game with no issues. I don't have a config file for you, but i can't see it helping anyway. All my settings are default settings through the GUI.

You should not need to do this at all, complete overkill.

Sure a fresh install may be a good thing to do, but not because you change your gfx card.

I have 2 gtx480's and ctd on numerous occasions. I crash only when I'm in the menu's which is kind of weird! What happens is because I just got it yesterday. I'm still messing with my controls and have to exit out to the menu and when trying to make a change it ctd at times. Not one ctd during game play. My nvida cp is set to default for the game also, except for my global settings. Not sure if it's an sli issue or what. The game runs smooth at 2560/1600 every things medium except textures{high}. So far I pretty happy considering the troubles the first release{Europe} went through for our delayed usa launch.

I tried uninstalling and re-installing my drivers, game, and deleting the shaders cache and the game still crashes after I start the Launcher.exe. Sometimes I get a black screen and sometimes I get the windows pop-up 'this program has stopped working'

This is the only game I've had any issues with.

I'm running Windows Vista, x64 bit
i7 processor
6GB Ram
and I recently put in a GTX480 and my old sound card:
GTX480
Sound Blaster Xfi

I was running 2 GTS 250s in SLI

by chance where did you install the game? if C:\program files (x86) then try moving it some where out side that folder and install like this, C:\Ubisoft\il2 cliffs of dover\ make sure you run as administrator. right click the icon click on properties and advanced run as administrator.

Use driver sweeper or drivercleaner to delete old drivers (read manual for them). Your system still 'thinks' you are running your old card.
