Gabriel Knight Problems.

#1 Post by Quest For Glory Fan » Wed Mar 29, 2006 10:41 pm

I've been posting snippets of this in the gamer thread but it was ignored or was just not direct enough. Basically it's pissed me off enough to create a thread.

My Problem Is Gabriel Knight 1 - Sins of the Fathers. I just bought the game and it came brand new and I excitedly installed it. It worked marvelously and I was more than pleased. I finally got to the point where Gabriel is speaking with Mosley and then woman in the limosuine is introduced. I than encountered a "Sierrra error" or something like that and my game shut down. I tried to go back to it later and depending on which I clicked I would get two different errors. If I clikced the game installed from my CD I get the little box saying "Windows title not found" and than a small box appears and an error comes up saying "Your current display driver is not supported by this game. You can choose a different driver in the windows setup" and if I run the one on my hardrive I get "Sierraw has caused a general protection fault in module KRNL386.exe at 0001: A023"

I've tried reinstallnig the game and chaning my drivers (although I couldn't find anything that said VGA) and neither of these worked. What would you guys reccomend I do? By the way I'm running the Sierra version and Dosbox has sound and speed issues.

Have you tried installing the game through the unofficial Windows XP installers?

I'm so Mad! After all this time of not being able to play this game I woke up this morning and without thinking just went Start, Programs, Gabriel Knight and it worked perfectly except my save was gone! Oh well I'm not mad anymore because I get to play again.

double post!

Anyways I've been playing through the game for quite a few hours straight now but got stuck on day 4. I consulted 3 different walkthroughs but it says I haven't missed anything. It's a short day so does anyone know exactly what needs to be done on Day 4 to complete it?

[spoiler]Most Walkthroughs tell me to leave the cathedral after Crash dies to end the day but it's not happening.[/spoiler]
