I installed Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour (CnC ZH) today, and wen i tried to play it, it says this...

Technical Difficulties....

You have encountered a serious error. Serious errors can be caused by many things like viruses, overheated hardware, hardware not supporting the minimum system requirements...blah..blah...

and at the bottom there is a "OK" button.. thats it..

So wat shud be done for this ?? I successfully played CnC Gen, CnC 3 Tiberium WArs on my PC (P-4, 2Ghz, 2GB DDR RAM, nVIDIA Ge Force 7600 GS--256 MB)

Do you think it's a compatibility issue running on a 64bit system? I don't know. Maybe something in this post might help.

"You have encountered a serious error. Serious errors can be caused by many things like viruses, overheated hardware, hardware not supporting the minimum system requirements...blah..blah.."


ROFL! Got that one too..but ONLY on ONE specific 6 players skirmish map with the maximum of hard players.

It is NOT a compatibility issue or a resource problem; as I already did ALL of the other maps even the 8 players maps with the maximum of hard opponents, all of them; and didn't had a single problem!

The funny thing is that I completed that specific map on Easy to check if it is a coding problem...weird.

So as any good little customer..I tote the problem was with my system; so I updated ALL of my drivers and DiretcX, ran another anti virus, closed all background apps running, did a fresh reboot after a cool off period, heck! I even changed my socks and underwear just to be sure: Nothing. Always the same crash on the same maps.

Therefore, after removing all the possible causes and possibilities, what remains, even if it sound impossible is the only logical solution: The game itself have a problem.

Legio: What map? Some official maps have problems as well as many custom maps found around the internet.

THIS IS AN ACTUAL FIX IF YOU HAVE THE GAME ON ORIGIN: I have contacted EA help after having the exact same error message: technical issues, serious error...etc as stated above when trying to start the game, after trying many fixes what they told me to do that makes it work is log in to origin, in the top left there is a tab that say's origin, click on that, then go to application settings - origin in game - and then uncheck the box that say's enable origin in game so it is off and thats all then it worked. This is after trying all the other stuff like changing the options.ini file etc and none of that worked.

This problem has been fixed now. I'm just adding this here in case someone finds this post.

Search Google for 'GenPatcher'. Download it, run it, and click on 'Apply Fixes', and your game will work.
