Tachyon The Fringe??????

Hello guy's,

I have bought recently TACHYON The Fringe and I wanted to know, cause I have saw some of you speaking about it on some thread, if you can help me guy's. I have installed the game and also the patch but everytime I launch the game, I get an ERROR message that goes like this: Error SPACE.ICD. It happens all the time and I cannot play the game. Can you help me, please?

I am running on: Window's XP Home Ed., Amd XP 1.7gig, 1024 meg of ram DDR PC2700, Asus A7V8X VIA KT400, Geforce3 TI 200 64mb, Soundblaster Livevalue, and on high speed cable .

Thanks for any help, this game looks great also, so any help would be very appreciated, guys.

I've not played it, but I think you'd have better luck to go to a fansite of that game or contact the developers.

Hi Tachyon,

Well I have tried on many diferent websites with no chances. Most of Tachyon websites are closed, or the forums doesn't work, so am turning into here in case someone might be able to help me. I have send and e-mail to Novalogic for help, maybe they will be able to help me.

But am sure on this website there must be someone that have the same problem like me, with Tachyon. The game launch and I get the intro, but after intro I always get that same error Space.icd message. Am sure some people in here that plays FL have the game and they might be able to help me.

Thank you,

I think it has to do with HD space that you have too little disk space maybe you could clean it up.

or the second thing might be that the game is pre-XP era so you're stuck with a dead bird in that case I would suggest a double boot system with your XP-home and 98 SE ( I've experienced partition boot-magic 6.0 for a while I could recommend that for you

if this doesn't help then I'm all out of options

Hi,

I have plenty of space free on my HD, it's a Maxtor 80 gig, I have 3 partitions on my HD, C: 68% free space, D: 83% and E: 98%. So I guess it's no it then. I have try to change the Tachyon icon on my desktop, to compatibility to 98, but still it doesn't work. And has for your last option, because am not a crack at comp, a very newbee, I guess am all out of options . But thanks for trying to help me.

The only thing that I could think of is that the game wasn't made for your area. If its anything like what playstation games are they cant be played if the game wasnt made for that region of the world. I seen that you live in canada but where did you buy it from, online or actually in canada?

To Matt8705,

Hi,

Yes I did buy it in Canada, has a matter of fact, in Montreal close to my house, at the computer store. Am pissed cause this game looks so great, and I cannot play it. The intro start up, but after it's done I get that space.icd error always. There must be someone that can help me on this website, but so far in vain. Hope someone comes up with some kinda help.

but thanks anyway for trying to help Matt8705

anyone4 you know that might be able to set up a double partition for you? my dad was fiddling with the comp one day and he got a double partition up, and i'm not up to the standards of understanding what you need to do.. and my dad's far worse off in the area of comp. so you could just fiddle with it.. stick in a win. 98 disc and see what it tells you.

Science is knowledge.
Knowledge is power.
Time is money.
power = work/time
therefore, knowledge= work/money
therefore, money = work/knowledge
therefore, money is inversely proportional to knowledge.

therefore,

The more knowledge you have, the less money you have.

Prepare for the worst, for you have read the worst.
