Goldeneye: Source will not start up on Windows 10 and Windows 11

(1/3) > >>

SuperConker:
Tried playing Goldeneye: Source today and it will not launch at all for some reason.

I just get a spinning circle next to the mouse cursor for a few seconds,
but the game will not actually launch.

Tried starting the game up on two different computers with the same result,
anyone else having the same issue?


Computer 1:

Windows 10 (22H2, Build 19045.3636)
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (16 cores, 32 threads)
64 GB DDR4 Ram (3600 Mhz)
Geforce RTX 4080 Founders Edition (16 GB)
nVidia Driver: 546.08 (Hotfix)


Computer 2:

Windows 11 (23H2, Build 22635.2700)
Intel Xeon X5690 (6 cores, 12 threads)
24 GB of DDR3 Ram (1600 Mhz)
GeForce GTX Titan X (Maxwell, 12 GB)
nVidia Driver: 545.84 (WHQL)


The fact that the game will not launch on two completely different computers is strange.

I have 64-bit Windows 10/11, do i still need to download the x86 version?

soupcan:
Correct, because it is a 32-bit game.

SuperConker:
I installed the x86 version now but the issue still persists.

I also tried uninstalling the x64 version that was already installed,
but the game will still not launch.
