Burnout crashes on first loading screen

Bobinbi · 03-17-2012, 02:37 AM

So as a lot of you guys may know Burnout was on a -75% this week so I bought this game.

It appears that the game isn't loading..
As soon as it gets past the first loading screen it crashes..
I've tried a lot of fixes, deleted webcam drivers, set the compatibility to windows XP service pack 3.
None of them worked.
I know this is a mayor problem but if I'm not able to play this game I'd be very jarateed off because I wasted money on a game that won't work.
I also tried a program that would allow me to skip any loading screen but as for now that didn't work.

My computer is a HP Pavilion dv6 with build in webcam ( HP TrueVision HD )
If someone can please provide me with a fix of this problem I'd be happy.

Regards,

Bobinbi

I found this was caused by Webcam drivers, I was using PS3 Eye webcam drivers. Even with the webcam option turned off in the Burnout config the game still crashed. After uninstalling the driver completely Burnout started working fine.

Hope this helps.

I've been playing this game a while now and suddenly, today, it started to crash on first loading screen as well.
Anyone know what the hell is up?

If you used my BPAdvCFG Tool between v0.1.6 and v0.2.2 AND applied the No Menu Music or No Intro fixes AND saved settings more then once. Then there was a conditional bug that i fixed in v0.2.3.

Current version is v0.3.3 as of writing.

These are my notes on the bug and the fix.

Known Conditional Bug in v0.1.6 - v0.2.2 :
If you applied Menu Music or No Intro fixes and saved settings more then once, Your backups got overwritten with backups of the modified files.

This is the BPUnTweak that i put together that undoes the No Intro and No Menu Music fixes.

I seemed to have solved my problem by changing compatibility mode to Windows XP(service pack 3) and ran the program as administrator(not sure if that matters).

If anyone still has this problem, change your game compatibility to Windows Vista. It does work for me now.

I have the problem where I get the white screen, I can see the "Back to game" button, but the game says it has stopped working before I can just click the button. I have changed compatibility and ran as administrator and it doesnt work. Anyone have tips?
