Will not start up...

I try to start it up and it gets to the "Freelancer" screen after the intro videos, and then quits and GPF's. I get that "Do you want to send an error report to Microsoft" kind of box. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the program, also have tried re-installing direct X, not sure what else to do besides format the drive and start over. Any ideas? It was working fine before today, last thing I did was use the FL mod manager but I'm not sure if that could have done it or not. Going to try one more time here making sure that everything is taken off.

The same thing is happening to me... I was editing the ini's to make a custom ship, and I couldn't get it to work. After double-checking everything about 4 times, I just gave up and put my back-up original ini's in. It still wouldn't work, so I downloaded the original ini's and put those in. It still wouldn't work so I uninstalled and reinstalled. It still won't work. Unless someone can tell me what's going on I'm afraid I'll just have to give up on the thing :-(

I just fixed it! The problem is with your savegames. Any saves that were made after the mods were installed need to be deleted. I moved all mine to a different folder and used trial and error to find the most recent savegame that worked. Good luck!
