Call of Juares: Bound in Blood crashes on startup

03-20-2011, 08:53 AM

Hello.
I bough this game in the Ubisoft-pack.
But after having installed it, whenether I try and start it up, I see a startup-picture, before it crashes without any error-code or anything.

I'm running the game on the following system:
Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit
4GB RAM
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E8500 @ 3-16GHz
Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT

I was having the problem where it would show a black screen then crash. I fixed this by going to the executable file in the Call of Juarez folder and setting compatibility for windows xp service pack 3.

yup that worked for me. Well i just bypassed the steam one and go directly to the exe file

I had a similar issue with Windows XP

I could see the very first animation (with software house logo and so on) and before reaching menu screen my computer got stuck on a black screen

I solved by letting CoJBiBGame_x86.exe access internet

during black screen, Zone Alarm was asking if I wanted to grant Call Of Juarez internet access but popup was covered by black screen so I didn't realise

so while trying to come back to desktop I pressed space or something (maybe alt+f4) that made popup disappear before I could see it

after trying several times, I noticed it when looking at zone alarm log

as soon as I allowed Call Of Juarez to access internet, game started normally
