Hello iv searched for a fix to this but cannot find one similar.
I bought the original Bethesda disks and installed Potc all went smoothly, until I click the launcher and it comes up “log in as administrator to launch”. So simple enough I right click and click run as administrator, and nothing happens.
I’m running windows 7 home premium, iv read a few fix topics and have tried moving the file from program files to the C: drive. Doesn’t help. Iv tried changing the properties, by going into compatibility and clicking the run in XP smart 2 etc. Nothing works.
Iv also went on and downloaded “mod build 3.1” and installed it to try that instead. It got further, it would let me click the launcher and actually launch but all would happen is the game would attempt to launch then a “visual c++ error” saying “abnormal termination error”
Iv limited knowledge on this and would appreciate help, I cannot see why the original game won’t even attempt to launch.
Any help on this is much appreciated, I enjoyed playing this game years ago.
Was thinking if I opened a new partition and installed xp to my laptop would this solve the issue?
