Followed the same path after uninstalling.
It seemed that I had installed Aftermath
before Counterstrike.
So now I get "The procedure entry point
SMapLS_IP_EBP_12 could not be located
in dynamic library KERNEL32.dll"
Whatever I do, I get this message or the
"Unable to [find or allocate] Primary Video
buffer".
Furthermore, I cant get Tiberian Sun or
TS Firestorm to run either - or RA Gold.
Is there any knowledge about a possible clash
with any Symantec product, (like Noton AV and
Norton Internet Security) or that my NVIDIA
is the wrong card?
Can't get RA to recognise Soundblaster AWE 64
either. Checking in a basic Soundblaster card
results in broken sounds.
Running RA in DOS mode at 640 * 480 is very blocky,
and hard to control, and a poor experience.
