ricks03 0 Posted December 7, 2022 Hi! So I'm trying to get EAW working on a couple of old laptops. Both exhibit the 7217 error. After a lot of searching around, I found the eaw1.28efullversion-3-1-2017.zuip file, which gets past the 7217 problem, but then I get what I (now know as) screen tearing. I tried the suggestions from https://eaw.neocities.org/troubleshoot.html#wrap and downlaoded and installed the OpenGlide and DirectDD (ddwrapper) with the same results. I finally got frustrated and installed the GOG version, which put me right back to the 7217 problem! Any other suggestions? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkEAW 63 Posted December 8, 2022 (edited) What does old laptop mean? Which OS and CPU/Video chip are in them? XP and Intel Chip? The Wrappers should automatically solve the 7217 problem for you as far as I remember. The screen tearing should be solved too. Without the details on your laptop, I'm confused. Sorry. EDIT: The old XP Intel Video chips use an old OpenGL, I think v1.1 , I believe EAW/the Wrapper program will need v2.0 ....but its still uncertain why DX mode/DX Wrapper still gives there error.
