VDRIFT will not start... - muscledrifter - 03-08-2010

VDrift wont start. i click on it to run. the DOS prompt opens, and i get this message; The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002). click ok to terminate the aplication. im not sure what graphics card i have, or if my CPU is fast enough, but i thought id give it a shot. any help will be greatly appreciated. this is the 2nd game ive downloaded and cannot run. the first was Rigs Of Rods.

Hi muscledrifter,

So I guess you are running it on Windows?
Please post your stderr.txt, stdout.txt(you will find them in your vdrift folder).

To get your graphics card type:
Right click on the desktop, then Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Adapter
Alternatively download/run: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/

ok, graphics card, mobile intel 915GM/GMS 910GML Express. as for the stderr.txt or stdout.txt i could not find them.

Here is some more info on your GPU:

You might want to update your drivers:

You might try a more recent build:

Are you able to run other OpenGL games like Half-Life, Quake 3, TORCS?

thank you for the info, and the updated driver link. however, your link for a more recent build doesnt work... media fire said teh file was either moved or deleted.

Try this one.

VDrift rev 2629 win32 build: http://uploading.com/files/fdc89aa5/VDrift.zip/

tried it, failed... same error message

weird, the download worked for me.

maybe deleting your browser cache would help.

edit: oh, i think you meant same error message in the game. nevermind, disregard my post

I googled on
Quote:application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002)
It means that some dependency(a runtime?) is missing.

What Windows version are you running?
Please make sure you've installed all service packs.
You may have to install the Visual C redistributable:

Please report the outcome. I'd like to know if VDrift depends on the VC Redistributable.
