I've got a suspicion that AVG doesn't work with Alleg. on Vista.

AVs that definitely work include Avira.

Monkey Monkey! notJarvis

The suspcisions I can confirm with my set up and the OS is Vista Premium Home iirc.

notjarvis · Post by **notjarvis** » Mon Oct 05, 2009 8:34 am

OK - As MrC has confirmed - your Antivirus is a problem to you getting in game, free alternatives include Avira, and Avast (without the firewall).

Not sure it would cause the error message you describe though.

Other things to check which may solve problems are listed here. As I remember you have to run ASGS.EXE as Admin, and run it in windows server 2003 compatibility mode.....

pccs, please ignore the above replies. There is no way, that your particular problem (i.e. Allegiance crashing) is caused by your AV.
Sadly, Alleg is crashing on launch with EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION, which might mean many things. I'll try to find some things you might try to get this fixed. Stay tuned for updates.

AVG Version 8.5.409 works with my vista home premium

MrChaos · Post by **MrChaos** » Tue Oct 06, 2009 5:22 pm

Sweet! Thanks Corsair, good to know.

Prior versions didn't (as of a few months

ago anyway). I didn't say it was HIS problem, just that I had a problem....

ok ok one of my many problems, with the two together.

i'm not sure if this has been solved yet but it seems similar to my problems after i bought a new comp and allegiance wouldn't run i fixed it by using build 212

pccs · Post by **pccs** » Fri Oct 23, 2009 1:09 am

Tried running build 212, got the same results.
