after several attempts to fix halo pc, I have given up on it, it won't work at all. I did:
system restores
removal of all halo pc files
re-install
un-install followed by re-install
-window command in the halo properties
cleaned scratches

halo pc won't work for no reason.... I just can't get the game to not minimize at all, it minimizes, I hit ctrl alt delete, and it says EXCEPTION ERROR! and it closes.

so you won't be seeing me online, and sadly for kim, I can't pwn his ass :D

Just catch me on live, fastmatt30... happy pwnage on pc too.

Whats wrong with it?


edit...
If its a map file you -blam!- up, reinstall it to a different folder, that was the only way I was able to fix my bitmaps.map. Don't ask why, I have no idea why its like that.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Damn Matt, sorry :(
Go on Xfire when you can, okay?

Uninstall fully, and just let it sit for like five days, the re-install.

You think I am joking, but I'm not, that's how i fixed it when it did that to me.

You'd probably win. I play Halo PC most of the time, and this week I might be too busy to spare time for the 360. But whatever.

I can't wait to upgrade my PC, and then I'll probably never touch my 360 again. :)

I dunno, its kinda the opposite for me. I got my 360 along with Halo 2 and Dead Rising, and now Halo PC just looks so old and decrepit now... Anyway, my best advice would be to do what Robo Leader said. Just uninstall it for awhile, and try again. And note, to everybody out there, I DONT HAVE LIVE! It pissess me off so bad, why doesnt anybody have a dsl cable 15 minutes from town? Why? Why? WHYYYYY!!?

In that 5 days you most likely changed something.

Do what I said in my edited post up there ^.
I guarantee it will work, if it doesn't well then your -blam!- lol

If you find yourself with nothing to do, could you consider posting your specs (I've looked for it). Mainly the OS, processor, hard drive(s), file system for the said hard drive, disk drive, the condition of your Halo CD and the names of all files on that disk.

That's because your computer maybe... sucks? A decent gaming rig can run circles around the Xbox 360, thankyouverymuch. Gears of War will look eight-bit once DirectX 10 arrives.

Like this? Have you changed any of the hardware? Do you have .NET Framework? If so, what version.
