Id really like to play this game, but I cant get past the mechlab loading screen. After 3 seconds....it abruptly stops and crashes back to desktop.

This is cheezing me off.

We are going to need some more some info from you.

What OS are you running? Is it the 64bit version?
What is your Video Card?
System Ram amount?
Have you installed Directx 9c?
Also go to the MWO installed directory and post the omicron.log file so we can see what error the game is putting out.

Also at the patch screen if you click the gear icon at the top right you can run the repair tool to fix any corrupted files you may have.

This sounds like a minimum spec issue. Are you running an integrated graphics card, possibly an Intel HD 4000?

If so, see this thread.

That fix doesn't work for me since the new update. What hoops must I jump through now in order to play?

Getting a new pc, apparently.

System specs are as follows---

Gateway

Windows edition 8.1


System

Processor --- Intel Pentium CPU 2020M @ 2.40Ghrz

Ill need to install mechwarrior again to get the file, be back in 3 hours.

And upon seeing the specs, I dont think this laptop will run it. Surprising since this thing runs a few other games. Alas...I need a new system.

[Summon3r]

even if your machine gets u into a drop it will be unplayable on those specs

if your budget is tight take a look in the hardware section of the forums there is a thread on mwo machines for under 500 bucks

The CPU, memory, and video card are weak, so a lot of games made since 2008 will not work well or at all.

Pardon my ignorance on the subject, but can I update this laptop to run a few more games? And thank you for the info summoner. Yeah,..its true...im cheap and would rather not spend money if I dont have to.
