Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 display issue

Unsc Posted messages 5 Status Member -

Good evening, I have a small issue with RCT3 when I want to play. I launch the game, then a black screen appears with the message "Check your computer's display settings". I have already tried a lot of things without results, the same problem occurs for the demo. All my drivers are up to date, I am on XP SP1, I have also tried running it in 256 colors without results, so I'm a bit stuck. If someone could help me please, I would really appreciate it ^^. Thank you in advance.

My configuration:

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-M51GM-S2G
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 6000+ 3GHz
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT (256 MB)
Memory: 3GB

Hello

For your information, I have
XP SP2
NVIDIA Geforce 6600
optimal 32bit
1024*768
and it has been working since ...

You may (perhaps) need Service Pack 2, which has been out since ....

You should
- back up your personal files on CD-ROM or elsewhere
- check your disk (chkdsk on startup)
- defragment your disk
- do a Windows update which should install SP2

You may have disabled Microsoft upgrades
after SP2
if that doesn't work
uninstall
and reinstall the game
without changing anything at the game startup

if it has loaded once
you can change the video settings afterwards

SP2 does not upgrade drivers
you may also need DirectX
