Right, where do I start.
I've played renegade for a couple of years, and i must say loved it.
I reformatted my computer, hence having to install the first decade again. So i did that, got renguard, however renguard says at the start "unauthorized file bandtest.dll". I left it and joined a server, i was able to play for 10 seconds and then the screen would go black and it would restart my computer, coming up with "Windows has just recovered from a serious error". I've reinstalled countless times, and now it just doesnt start, i get a black screen with the music of the intro but nothing but blackness.
I don't know if its the disc, but i highly doubt it considering all the other first decade games work a treat.I've installed all the scripts, renegades fully patched
I've read so much posts with other problems and never seen one like this (probably havent looked hard enough)
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, i love this game and would really like to get back to owning GDI!
thanks, kenshinu

The black screen u talked about before was probably caused by installing the core patches after installing scripts 3.x. Renguard itself doesn't have anything to do with the custom scripts but if you allow it to download core patches, then it will obviously install them.
About the crashes: seems like a computer wide problem indeed. Maybe overheating? Do you get a blue screen of death? If so, it could also be bad a memory stick or maybe a driver problem?
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I don't exactly know how to get my specs, my brother does all the computer stuff. I dont get the blue screen of death, I recently added 2gb of ram and a new video card, my processor sucks, still have to replace that, theres a fair chance it could be overheating.
Ill leave the case open and open the windows etc then try again.
Thanks for all the advice, much appreciated!
thanks, Kenshinu
