Which OS are you running?

Have you installed the MAX-pack?

Can you post a screencap of your options panel to check the settings you're using?

What exactly is the error message saying?

the OS is windows 7,the control panel screenshot is the same i posted above,i intasalled the Max pack,the error is

"application exception directx error 0x80070057

it only happens with missions based levels,and like oher people suggested here in a similar topic,it can be solved only by choosing software renderer,which woirks but it looks very bad and its a hasslt everytime to change it back to direct 3d for non-missions levels

EDIT:it works now ,i disabled that fog setting in the advanced options and for some reasons it works

Ah! Good to know. Fog can make the game crash as well.

Good that you figured it out.
