Hi, hope I'm not going over old ground, but I couldn't find an old topic on this. I upgraded from a GF4MX440 to a Radeon 9800 Pro 128 this morning, and now Freelancer does not run. I get a message saying that the game doesn't recognise my card, which seems reasonable given the dates of release, and if I then try to continue, I get thrown back to the desktop before I get any more than a black screen.

I have the latest Catalyst drivers, 4.4, and I'm at a loss for what to do. Any help is appreciated. My specs are as follows:

AthlonXP 2600 T-Bred B
MSI K7N2 nForce 2 mobo
1024MB Corsair XMS RAM
Radeon 9800 Pro 128
SB Live! 5.1
Windows XP Home SP1

If you want any more technical info, just let me know. Thanks.

Now I was having the same problem w/ my 9600XT. And it took me forever but...

Follow the steps for the audio fix.

Delete, move your saved games.

That should work.
