Hey guys....

I've tried loading W:A onto my Acer 5633 laptop with Vista Premium 32-bit on it.

Now I've read up beforehand on all these colour problems, however when I try to load up W:A the game doesn't even start at all....

It displays an error message stating that it encountered an error (funnily enough) and a log of the error was created....

this is the log:

wa caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
in module wa.exe at 001b:004094ab.

Exception handler called in ExceptionAttacher.cpp - AfxWinMain.

can any one help me out with this one? For Reference It's an Intel Centrino Duo Processor with Intel 945GM chipset.

Cheers! :)

Intel's GPU drivers for Windows Vista are not compatible with Worms Armageddon (and, as I've heard, many other old games).
