duron 800
512 Mo RAM PC133
GF2MX400 with detonator 44.03 driver
WIN2000 with SP3
DX 8.1a

here's the prog's src :


I compiled it to be windowed, fullscreen exclusive mode, normal EXE file or small with PCK, so on, but I still can t run the .exe

I can run normal DB compiled binaries but I want to use DBP

I suggest that you delete the .dbpro file, double-click the .dba source file, answer 'yes' to both popup-boxes, then compile and run without changing any options.

See if that gets you anywhere

Ok a couple of things--

Does running the examples give you any problems?

Does this code work?:



make object sphere 1,1

do
turn object left 1,1
sync
loop


Does the program hang, or quit instantly?

Do you recieve an error sound?


Answer them questions and I might have a solution . Thanks for posting your question intelligebly, so few people do

Hello Mouse,

I have no access to the examples/tutorials because I am running the DBP trial version, I regret this *sigh*.
Anyway, I tried the sphere prog and the same situation occured :
- the program quit instantly (after the logo appearance)
- no error happens

Thanks to IanM and you to reply me
You don't need to thank me, lol,it is logical to explain precisely a problem to solve it, isn't it ? x-d

Sounds like either your DX setup is dodgy or your drivers are - have a look in the DX Diagnostics area, and do a 2D and 3D test.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

Well, if you cant make a sphere and display it, then either the operating system or DX8 isn't working correctly.

Do a diagnostic anyway...

That's a little extreme. Try to re-update DX8.1 (or upgrade to DX9) and reinstall your video drivers first.

too late m8, I formated and reinstalled everything.
The good new is I can run all the .exe, from dark basic, 1.13 or pro

Only God knows where the problem was from.

I am very happy for all your help guys, thank you very much and I'd like to thank Rich for his answers to my mails
VIVA DARK BASIC !!!
See you soon, I'll have much questions about programming
