It used to work before but now it just crashes with this allegro file saying

I am using ZC 2.10 with windows XP Service pack 2 I have a Geforce 8600 GT And 1GB Ram
Any ideas?
Some times certain video modes are incompatible with certain hardware. Try changing around the resolution (using ZCLauncher, for example) and see if that fixes the problem.
Where do I download the ZCLauncher for 2.10?
It doesn't exist. Like DD said, if you have made any video changes, those may be affecting ZC. Also, I would suggest downloading ZC again, since some of the support files have become corrupt to some people in the past.
No I didn't even started playing ZC in the fresh new install, So no I didn't made any video changes in ZC, Could it be that a Geforce 8600GT Affect ZC?
BTW My desktop screen size is 1024x768

Ya, it exists. You just have to download 2.10.2. There is a link in the thread called "stable 2.10 is the works". I think it is one page 4.
Wow I fixed it by using the launcher that comes with the updated 2.10 😃
I don't know how I did as I toggled some resolution options but it is now fixed 😊
EDIT: Another problem, I still cannot run the Quest builder, I cannot change the resolution from the ZLauncher so I cannot build quests
Just tried Zelda Classic right now and it runs like heck, Way too many bugs I'm having on a Geforce 8600GT, I hope that these can somehow be fixed for the upcoming version :/

I knew that... 🙄

That could be the culprit. That is a newer graphics card, right? Zelda Classic may not be compatible with it.
What you could do is create shortcuts to both ZC and ZQuest. Right click one of them, go to Properties, and click the Compatibility tab. You could screw around with this and see if it works. :shrug:
If changing the resolution doesn't work, or is buggy, run both ZC and ZQ in windowed mode, as doing so works in most cases where full-screen is incompatible.
Or if all else fells, you might want to see if one of the alpha builds works.
