Sins wont work on My Laptop, Help Please.

from Sins Forums

Hi guys I recently bought Sins: Diplomacy which works fine on my desktop that I have had for several years recently, our family purchased a new laptop which in theory should be better than the desktop, but none of the sins expansions work.

 

When i try to Start Sins on the Laptop i get a message box saying

Saved MiniDump:

C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\ Temp\SinsDump\Sins-v1.191-2010-04-10-10-38-26-4696-4252.dmp

... is where the username is.

when i click OK the message box goes away and i get the usual Win7/Vista Sins Has stopped working windows is check for a solution box.

The specs are:

2.13 GHz Intel Core i3 330M

4GB RAM

Best bet is to ask here, they'll likely know how to fix it.  (The moderators here post the top one, but the second links directly to the site)

 

Does original sins work, just not the expansions?  And do you have the latest updates from Impulse?

Okay, then you'll need to use one of those links then.  Good luck.  This is an awesome game once you get it working.
