What OS? Windows 98/2000/XP/Vista/7?
Edit: OMG 999th POST!

What version of Windows are you using? If you have XP, make sure you have the latest Servce Pack (3, I think) installed.

EDIT: AC probably runs no longer on Win 2000.

im not sure if its 2000 or XP. my mom gave it to me, and she doesn't know.

i just installed the service pack 3, and it still doesn't work

its XP. i tried to download the pack 3, but i think i need to install 2 first

You gotta check which operating system you got (like Gibstick wrote).

If Win 2000 and AssaultCube version 1.1.0.3 then look here: http://forum.cubers.net/thread-1348.html

By the way Service Pack 3 is not the current service pack for Windows 2000 (it´s SP4).

[DEEGLE]

i have XP, im in the middle of downloading all of the service packs

---

should i download all of them, or just 4?

o_O
there is no Service Pack 4 for Windows XP

Just use the update function and download everything he wants you to download :D

I second ärkefiende, but, if you have an issue with Windows Update, in my experience SP2 will go on an unpatched XP, but SP3 needs at least SP1. Stupid, but true.
