First Hi everybody,

Since two days ago I get idea to re-play to my childhish game !
Since these two days I failed to run the game but before to post I search, read , try and and retry before to post there. Iam on a windows 8.1 computer with a NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M and Intel ® HD Graphics.

So I have downloaded the game, it was in .bin so I download Daemon tool.
I extract. I install. I added d3drm in \PRG_ENG. I tried to run it and I get this message:

"Dark Omen has failed due to an incompatible DirectX version our an out-of-date display drivers"

I checked my graphic cards drivers and apparently everything is up to date. What can I do ? Please can you take of your time to help or direct me to a page that I miss where my problems are explained.

Thank you for your help and your time !

PS: before I get other error message, but I redownload the game, disunstall the previous version daemon tools etc...
PPS: I feel really frustrated haaaaaa  Kiss

Hi and welcome,

sounds like you have a corrupted download so purchase the CD from ebay or you will have to find alternative downloads. However, I'm hoping you would have read the post named "Dark Omen failed to run because of out of date display-drivers" where I discovered a laptop USB docking station had installed its own display drivers that broke Dark Omen.

http://forum.dark-omen.org/help-section/dark-omen-failed-to-run-because-of-out-of-date-display-drivers-t1300.0.html

I also see that you don't mention downloading and installing our Intro Crash Fix ->

http://en.dark-omen.org/downloads/view-details/5.-miscellaneous/intro-crash-fix.html


Failing all that, try downloading these mod folders ->

Check your Registry (REGEDIT) and pop into chat channel for further help as we always fix it!
