Game Won't Start, Or Not Working.

[cshiels]

I purchased Rig N' Roll from 1c and downloaded the software and the patch.

After installing and activating the box came up and said that I meet or exceed the recommendations for the game. When I double click on the shortcut (and have also tried launching from the directory) the splash screen comes up (and I can see the processes starting up in task manager) but after a few moments the slash screen goes away and the processes disappear.

I have uninstalled the game, deleted all reg keys, and the original directory for a fresh install, but still the same.

I have also tried running the game in compatibility mode and as Administrator.
Any suggestions? Computer specs below

Sager 9280
Windows 7 64X
Core i7 920
6 gigs ram
320 7200 drive
nVidia GTX280 1GB

All drivers are updated

There is no patch for RignRoll yet... what exactly did you install?

Hello everybody

Today i got through the post via amazon Rig'n'roll king of the road on a pc dvd rom.
Installed it then activated the game then tried to run the game but nothing happened i did get up the popup logo with the name of the game but that is all,although i can see something is happening as my hadrdrive light is working overtime but after a 5 minutes wait nothing then i waited 10 minutes and nothing.So the next thing was to shut down my firewall/virus killer to see if that was the problem but no it was not.
Now my pc does go over the stardard requirements this game needs and i have tried the game in admin mode but that is no good aswell.
This is the second time i have installed the game and i did try the patch that is on this website but the game stated to me that it was already updated and it asked me did i still want to update so i said yes and did it but that was no good.So now i'm stuck hence the reson to write here in case you people had some suggestions await your replies thankyou

ok now that i have your specs we can narrow things down until we find the problem. i know my brother had a similar problem with the download version and found that once he installed it he had the same problem as yourself and we fixed it by unistalling the game and then deleting the root folder manually and then reinstalled it and away it went but i suspect that the dvd version has been corrupted in some way during the install also i would check that if it has the patch pre intstalled then the patch may be cause but i need one of the moderatorson here to first confirm if the dvd verion was pre patched as if not there may a differnt patch for you to install but give advice a try and it might just work .

good luck and if all else fails we can try something else

Hello Dnkiwi

Thankyou for your reply
I did what you asked but that did not work so i uninstalled it from my pc
and then went into the registry and got rid of it there aswell.
But before doimg all that i did a look into the bin files of this game and found a support prog that tell the support team about your machine and then it puts it into a winrar folder so what i did next was to look at the folder and i did find a lot of warnings about turnbyte dubbing well i do have on my pc some software that lets me download tunes from various radio channels that do streaming.So i uninstalled that software just as an experiment then i installed the game yet again but this time in admin mode and het presto the game works ( how or why that will remain a mystery? ) what i'm now going to try is to put my other software back in and see what the reaction is the game now it is installed properly may work okay still but i will not know untill i try it will lert you know what transpires at a later date thankyou once more for your help.

[Dnkiwi]

iam glad to hear that you have the working and feel free to ask again if you need any further help and i would more than happy to help or offer advice where possible

Warning! Do not install the latest ATI drivers (10.8 ). If i click on icon- nothing happens.


@EDIT, game will not run. Splashscreen appearing, then in procceses there is RNR.exe but it turning off after few seconds.


If you get tis problem use program: 3DRipperDX- game will run. I don't know, i reinstalled the game, tried everything, but only when i use this program it works.
