Updated opening post with DxDiag info. 8:28pm. Disabling Kapersky did nothing. Re-enabled it. Disabled all Logitech Keyboard software. 8:30pm. Started Demigod. 8:31pm. Demigod finally loads. Get your shit to work with Logitech gear, please. Still giving this experience a whopping 2/10 for now.
8:16pm and still on the loading screen. Going to disable Kapersky Anti-Virus (which I already put an Exception into and do it again).
8:11pm and still on the loading screen.
Did everything in the PDF. Swapped Demigod to windowed mode so I could watch TV on Hulu until Demigod decides to load past the Arena loading screen. Been 2 minutes so far, started @ 8:03, it's 8:05 now. Task Manager shows Demigod as using 4% CPU usage and 181MB RAM. Yeah, this is really going somewhere...
I'll run through whatever is in that PDF when I get home tonight. That being said, it is pretty pathetic that I have to run through some 3rd party guide, or any guide at all, to get a game to run when it should work right out of the box. The fact that I just basically paid for four movie tickets and then was told I'd have to spend an hour fixing the projector before I can sit down and enjoy myself is not only ludicrous, it's downright insulting to your customers. <
Launching from Impulse works fine. Cinematic works fine. Menus and options work fine. Once I try and start a Single Player Skirmish and click Launch (or whatever), the game goes to the Arena loading screen and just sits there with the completely non-intuitive blinking pyramid (is it too much to program a loading bar? Come on, now...) No log files are being generated when I launch the game so... let me know what you want to see in order to troubleshoot, thanks. Bas
