[RESOLVED] (SORTA) Taito Type X Games Quitting?

[DJ Infinity]

Has anyone had this problem? I have tried to run my Taito Type X games today for the first time in a coupla months. They all say game.exe has stopped working windows is looking for a solution blah blah. The only one that still works is Samurai Showdown Edge Of Destiny. I tried fooling with compatibility mode settings no luck. Which is rather odd because everything was working before without messing with it. I am running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. So if anyone has had this problem please let me know how you fixed it. I guess I can stick to the PS3 ports I bought.

Oops, I forgot, sorry.

Hey DJ I tried my game and all my Type X games run fine. My Type X2 games loaded all but BlazBlue. I'm using the shortcut *.lnk method of loading them. To fix the BlazBlue not working all I did was remake the shortcut and it runs like a champ again. Odd how only that game did that for me.

Glad its working still. My avast quarantined a few of my type x files and I havent got time to address it ATM.

It's gonna hafta be one of those weird problems that can't be fixed without a complete reload of windows. I ain't going thru that for type x. The games work on my other win7 64 bit rig just fine go figure. They just won't get played on my new game tower. I even redownload a game to see if files got corrupted somehow to no avail. still crashed. oh well thanx all. mods plz mark resolved or delete

[Adultery]

Do you use the lnk method or the loader method to run them?

[DJ Infinity]

Tried using the frontend and launching the games directly. Either method works on my other computer. When I first built my new game tower they wouldn't work. I reloaded Windows and they worked for awhile. Now they don't cept for arcana heart and SSED. Honestly it's cool. I have PS3 ports for KOF 12 & 13. I can get Blazblue when the mood hits. I also have a PC version of Street Fighter IV Arcade. I didn't play the shooters so it's no loss

Believe it or not I found the problem. Shorty after this thread I noticed I was having trouble with everything after a period of time passed. I was getting BSOD for everything. I couldn't play a movie or surf the web for more than five minutes without the dreaded blue screen. At first I thought it was a virus so I tried to reload windows. I had so much trouble doing that. When I finally got it done I got BSOD before I could even load any motherboard drivers. I also noticed on the startup screen for win 7 had garbage on it (a little). I did some poking around on google from my iPad and came up with one solution. My RAM was bad. So I took out the 2 sticks of patriot RAM I had and replaced it with four sticks of Corsair. And low and behold all problems are gone now and even my type x games work again. I will never buy patriot RAM again.

Glad you got it sorted. Sometimes the cheap price is appealing but, when it all boils down to it, you get what you pay for. Also, I'm tossing out my Patriot thumb drive now to save myself some heartache later.

Actually I've been using GSkill RAM in my computers and it hasn't let me down yet.
