Crash on Starting Campaign was created by Malatar
I'm runing Windows 7 x64, ATI 5970 with Catalyst 12.3. I can set up the game, get to the main menu after choosing my pilot, but any attempt to enter either campaign is met with a white screen crash and the following error message.

Please try running the game in admin mode.

Fascinating. Are you running a Crossfire/SLI system?

The 5970 is a Crossfire on one card video solution. I've tried disabling Crossfire, but it still crashes...

I have the same issue, on a 6990 (forced xfire) but only after applying the patch. About to rollback and see what happens.

Removed the game, reinstalled (minus patch) and the problem persists. Weird, considering I got through a couple missions after installing the first time (sans patch) without any issues. I am confused! :)

Ok definitely seems to be crossfire causing the pain as mentioned elsewhere on these boards - run the game in Windowed mode and all is well. Still no idea why it worked for a few missions in Fullscreen, but oh well.. back to the game!

EDIT - Ok so creating an application profile in CCC (and adding Anti-Aliasing in the process) with Crossfire disabled, and pointing it to the wcsaga_sse2.exe (NOT the launcher) allows the game to run in full screen 100% fine. I'll stop spamming now!

I am in the same boat. I have an Intel I7 860, a pair of 5700 ATI cards in Crossfire. I tried the above, disabling Crossfire and tweaking the Catalyst Control Centre profile for the game. But the game consistently hangs with a white screen on mission start.

Using the debug version of the executable, I was able to play the first mission, but it always crashes when I land on the carrier at the end... The game is just beautiful... Very nice job on creating that "Wing Commander" feel. I just hope I can get it running soon!
