Hey Alton!
I am facing this problem also but i have search on the internet for the solution. There are few things that we need to do to solve this problem.
First of all make sure that you have latest drivers for you Graphics Card.
If you are using NVIDIA, download the latest drivers for your graphic card model from NVIDIA official website.
Similarly if you are using ATI Graphic card, make sure that you have downloaded the latest drivers for your ATI graphic card from ATI official website.
Alternatively, you can use software like Driver Genius that automatically update the latest drivers for you hardware according to your windows.
Once you have installed the latest drivers. Do not forget to install the latest version of Physx Driver.
After installing all these drivers, Reboot you system.
You will be able to play the game.
Thanks.
This issue may be caused if “Aureal A3D” drivers are installed on your computer as it conflict with an audio device that is installed attached to your computer. First of all remove “Aureal A3D” drivers and select other audio device to use as default sound device. Please do these steps:
1. Go to Start, & click Control Panel.
2. Click Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices.
3. Click Sounds and Audio Devices then click Audio tab.

It's just wow,
I was so worried about that problem. I love to play games. But I couldn't manage to play. Thanks experts Thompson, Melon and Tunacao. All credit are yours.
I also thank to this site Techyv.com You have done a great job.
The solution for this is to upgrade your drivers, maybe they are not updated anymore. You need to uninstall the previously installed Physx driver together with your graphics driver.
Be sure to download the latest drivers and install your graphics driver then restart your computer. Lastly,install your PhysX driver. Another solution for your problem is to click start menu,run then give input regedit.
A box should appear and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE then choose system. Navigate from system to Current Control Set then Control. From control click Session Manager and finally Memory Management. Then find the entry called "PagedPoolSize".
You have to modify it to 10000000 or to 268435456. Finally, restart your computer and play.
Dear Alden clayton,
I had the same issue with one of my systems running XP SP2, where I had installed BIAH and was really surprised to receive so many error messages at the start of the game. I received similar errors, refer to the PIC.
Surprisingly this same game with the same installation media was working on my other System running XP on SP3 with same hardware specs.
So I researched on the issue, as it was confirmed that the media is good, game is running, SO the only difference can be the O/S, updates (service Pack) or the drivers.
And issue was the drivers. So the steps taken by me were:
1- Uninstall the current Physx driver.
2- Uninstall your Graphic Driver ( I have NVIDIA).
3- Got the latest Graphic ( Downloaded from the site).
4- Downloaded the latest Physx driver from:
5- Installed the Graphic Driver.
6- Reboot.
7- Installed the Physx software.
And since then enjoying the game.
Regards,
Hello Dear,
At first, I like to discuss the causes.
1. It is caused by improper bios setting of faulty build in peripheral drivers.
2. There is a problem in your motherboard.
Solution for this: You have to make the following changes.
1. Mastering setting of your bus should be modified according to your configuration.
2. The exterior cache as well as interior cache setting should be modified.
3. It may be needed to change your ram setting.
4. According to bios, all settings should be modified.
5. Please disable the L1 and L2 cache.
6. It is not recommended to use ultra DMA setting.
Thanks for having your time.
Hi Clayton,
You might have damaged or corrupted copy of the game that resulting in a missing file error message. You may get another copy of it and try again as taking in into the said error messages, it is not related to Operating System. Else you may try the same copy over any other system if you have.
Hi Alden,
I have read your concern about the error that you received when trying to play a game. This error usually occurs when you are trying to run two different programs on the same area of memory. It will also appear if the game you installed was not properly programmed. You can fix this error by following these steps:
1. Remove all your current video and Physx drivers.
2. Download the most updated NVIDIA and Physx drivers.
3. Install video driver first and Restart windows.
4. Install Physx driver.
Hope this helps you.
