What video hardware do you have ?

Could be any number of things... When you try to launch the game does it create a file in the logs folder? Does the game show up in task manager? Have you had any recent hardware changes or install any drivers recently?

This is my Hardware:
MOB.: ASUS P5Q
CPU Intel Q9550 [email protected]
HDD: Seagate 500GB
VGA: Sapphire ATI HD5850

OS: Windows XP SP3

It wasn´t hardware changes. I never use Window's firewall, or any one on OS.
When i launch the game, it show up in the task administrator at the process list and disaper one sec later. Where is the log folder ???, I don´t have any folder with that name.

Your system should be able to play Warzone fine, you have a good gfx card, I am assuming you also have the latest 12.6 or 12.7 AMD drivers ?

What anti-virus do you use? For me, the latest avast really annoys me when I try running the old retail exe as it tries to run in a sandbox and scan it for a few seconds then stops. Could be something close to it or may not.. Worth a looksee though.

When you uninstall and reinstall it does not delete the Warzone 2100 folder located in My Documents, it contains your config file and maps etc. If this directory does not exist, Warzone will recreate it. So you can move this whole folder to somewhere else, or delete it. Odds are you have a bad config file or map or mod in there. After you move or delete the folder try launching warzone again. If it works you can move stuff back one at a time to troubleshoot what the problem was.

I deleted folder at "My Documents" as you told me, and now the game work fine when i reinstaled. It launch correctly.
Thanks for helping XDDD

I been inspecting the situation closely, and i find out that when i change the main resolution at desktop and then star the game, it doesn´t launch and the log report say "the resolution is not supported". I have to chage manually the resolution at "config" file to resolve the problem.
Maybe the next beta version can include some fix about this bug.
Bye.
