Hello All,

I have been running the game Westward IV for a couple of weeks with no problems.  Today, my computer shut down with an error on a blue screen, so I restarted.  When I did, and I tried to launch the game, I received the following error message:

The error says:

Assertion failed!

Program: ...

File: .\inpin.cpp

Line: 518

Expression: SUCCEEDED(hr)

For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts (Press Retry to debug the application - JIT must be enabled) If anyone has any idea how to fix it up, please do let me know. I'll be looking forward to your suggestions.

Regards

Davis

Hello Davis,

You will need to try booting the computer in the safe mode and then check if you receive the same error message.

  • Restart your computer and then start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard.
  • If your computer has been configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you will need to F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.
  • After that choose Safe Mode when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and then press ENTER.

After that you can restore the system to a time before you started getting the error.

Regards,

Nicke
