Title: A possible solution: "game doesn't start (black window with loading etc) for ATI Post by: Yarr on February 10, 2010, 18:42 First, let me say it's been a pleasure playing this game. It's awesome.
Now for the issue; some background first. I had to reformat my computer a few months back. i've been encountering problems with older software and games like CS, Neverwinter Nights, FF8 and now with M.U.L.E . I tried to open a game and all i got was a black window. After 5 really wild nights i figured out that I missed a DLL file called atioglxx.dll That solved all my problems, hope it gives you some help too. I don't know how this will help people with nvidia etc, but it doesn't hurt to try. Thank you. Get the DLL file (in case you don't know what google is) from : www.dll-files.com Title: Re: A possible solution: "game doesn't start (black window with loading etc) for ATI Post by: Loraen on February 10, 2010, 22:06 I'll agree to this being a possible solution. My game freezes in the lobby. I searched and found that I have multiple copies of atioglxx.dll (several backups). I tested all of them but couldn't get the game to work. But instead of freezing, with some versions it insta-crashed with no message, some it gave the error that it failed to initialize LJGWL display.

Control Panel/ System/ Advanced/ Performance Options / Data Execution Prevention Select "Turn on Dep for all programs and service except those i select", and add mule.
