Turok
kato Jan 5, 2019 @ 9:35pm
I have an error when starting the game.
I receive this message at the beginning:

'Error - the parameter is incorrect'
File: .. \ source \ rhi \ d3d11 \ rhiContextD3D11.cpp
Line: 75

I already update all the components of my pc and even then it does not start me.

You are missing the DirectX11 update for Windows 7. You can grab it either by running Windows Update, or directly here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36805

Download it and tell me that it is already updated and still the game is not running

Try using this config file to start the game in OpenGL. Save it in your steamapps\common\Turok directory as config.cfg: https://puu.sh/BNKHO/2687f55441.cfg

now I get another error, kexSyatem :: InitVideo: Failed to create opengl context (Could not create GL context: The operation completed successfully

It seems your system doesn't have any available graphics hardware, a bit puzzling given almost nothing from Steam would actually work without it. What is your GPU and are it's drivers properly up to date?

Processor AMD Sempron (tm) 140 Processor
Memory (RAM) 3.00 GB
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430
72GB main hard drive available (148GB total)

That GPU was released in 2004, is now considered legacy by the manufacturer, and is very much outside of the range of support.
Try installing the latest drivers https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/82758 (64bit)
https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/82701 (32bit)
But if that doesn't help, you will need to consider upgrading your system.

Do this.

Or just install the update as there's workarounds for pretty much any game to get it working.

Or just get windows 10 and quit using an deprecated operating system.

ive got too much good ♥♥♥♥ that isnt compatible with win10 (old gems) and stuff like japanese pso2 ecetera many things that would be a pain to format,i have a copy of windows 10 that has been collecting dust, i don't want it unless i HAVE to... ANYWAY how do i get this file? when I click the link it brings me to a webpage which says = " that push can not be found " what do i need to do? now? to get Turok working on win 7 once again like it used to...?

KB2670838 is toxic for a pc gamer who likes to play old games and new games, not 1 dx10 or 1 gfwl game will run with the horrid KB2670838 so called "update"

Open your config.cfg and change
seta r_rhirenderfamily "d3d11"
to
seta r_rhirenderfamily "opengl"

PSO2 works fine on Win 10. Has for years.

So in other words you're not willing to put in five seconds of work to get games working on windows 10. Unless it's something dos based or 16 bit windows based like windows 3.1 or early 95/98 stuff, which is what dosbox is for, I've never been unable to get games working on 10.
