Sadok

The server went down when i was playing and unexpectedly
shut down the game on my PC. When i double clicked the
load game icon on my desktop a window popped up asking if
i wanted to load the game in Safe mode as it shut down
unexpectedly. Stupidly i clicked yes now it will only
attempet to load in safe mode and i cannot load it
normally, windows runs normal and this is the only
program which runs in safe mode when launched.
How can i fix this?

Thanks
 
Hi Sadok,

If you are comfortable with your registry, there's most likely
a value who's bit needs to be changed from 1 to 0. If you
are not comfortable with it, the quick and easy solution is to
backup your saved games, and reinstall the game itself.

If that solution isn't a possibility for you, please post back. :-)

It happened to me once in a game. So I started the game in safe mode. All I did was go into the game options and bump everything back up to my normal play. The next time I played, everything was back to normal and it didn't ask if I needed to start in safe mode..
 
Thanks for the reply here is a screen shot of my reg

Am I in the right spot? Which one of these do i need to
change?

I've lent the disk to a mate for a bit so i can't
reinstall untill the weekend. But i'm desperate to play!

Thanks mate

Hi,

Unfortunately, there's nothing there that we can change
to disable "safe mode" when the game launches. Are
you able to reinstall the game?

Hey Jimmy what if he crashed the game again, but this time didn't pick safe mode. Would it run normal again? Since he wants to play and can't get the disk untill the weekend....
 
No need for that - He was able to bump the controls
up again and continue playing normally. Good job! :-)

Cheers,
Jimmy.
