I do evrything normal and come in lobby but then when i wanna play it says : (update and all works)



Failed to initialize display! (i click ok and then this appears) Failed to initialize the platform; please run ClientSetup to check your client settings.
I already reinstalled it and still don't work pls help.

I recently installed a new graphics card (MSI GeForce 7600) and since then it happens is there a way to solve it exept going back to my old1?

easy answer:

you installed a new graphics card
you installed new drivers
darkspace doesn't yet realize those new drivers and expects the old drivers (hence the "failed to intialize display")
click the "setup" button next to "tutorial" in GCQL (or run cliensetup.exe in the darkspace folder)

select your graphics card drivers/resolution you want.

game should work.
