What you need to do is to edit the killingfloor.ini file which can be found in: c:\....\steam\steamapps\common\killingfloor\system Once you are in the killingfloor.ini file, search for a line that says [Engine.Engine] Then need to edit it by just copy and pasting the following. See below: ;RenderDevice=PixoDrv.PixoRenderDevice RenderDevice=D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice ;RenderDevice=Engine.NullRenderDevice ;RenderDevice=OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice ;RenderDevice=PixoDrv.PixoRenderDevice If your files does not look like the same above, then you need to change it. Once done, save it, then close all windows down. Relaunch your game and presto, the game loads. 05-19-2009, 11:35 AM #3 Mythelion Guest Posts: n/a Will try, thanks. 05-19-2009, 11:52 AM #4 cairenn Guest Posts: n/a I also get that since this evening, never had it before.

You can check how much RAM your PC has go to the Start Button, select settings, select control panel, select help and then select about Windows. 17.3.3 Insufficient hard disk space Windows 95 require a minimum of at least 20 Megs of hard disk space be available for temporary files, print buffering and RAM memory overflow (swap file).

To check and or set your swap file size with Windows 95 you would select start, select settings, select control panel, select systems, select performance, and select virtual memory. If the free hard disk space is less than 20 Megabytes, you should remove unnecessary files from your hard disk to free up a minimum of 20 Megabytes. Be sure the radio button allowing Windows to manage memory is selected. 17.3.5 Hard disk corruption You can use Microsoft's program called SCANDISK to check for hard disk corruption.
