Problems Launching Jade Empire

[michael12268]

I am having the same problem except I don't even get an error message. Nothing happens at all when I try and play the game. I tried all these ways to fix it but still nothing happens. I have Windows 8 though.

The same thing happens to me. Launch the game but does not appear any error or warning sound. I only see the cursor move to a different area of the screen. The solutions proposed so far have not helped me. I repeat that I have Windows 10.

Have you checked the Event Viewer? I get this with my Windows 8 and none of the suggested solutions works.

Hey alessandro, I have Windows 10, and the direct x fix worked for me, have you tried running the game as administrator? And changing the games comparability settings?

[Alessandro_M86]

Hello thedukeofpoop. Yes, I have installed the DirectX, and set compatibility with Windows XP SP 2 but I have no error, just nothing happens. Specific I downloaded Jade Empire Special Edition for free from Origin.

[thedukeofpoop]

may I ask whjat graphics card your computer has?

[Bryggaren4]

I have the exact same problem and I have a NVIDIA 745.

[Alessandro_M86]

Hi thedukeofpoop, sorry for not replying sooner but I have been very busy. My graphics card is this:

-NVIDIA GeForce GT 440 - 3072 MB

The card is updated and doesn't give me any problems with other games.

[michael12268]

It's got to be because it's such an old game right?

[thedukeofpoop]

yeh def, but seems weird that so   many people are having the same launch error where the game does not respond, I'm running  windows 10with nvid  gpu   and the game is running fine, I'm going  to do a good google search for a fix,  if I find anything  I will  let u peeps know
