So I found the game the other day and I installed it into my computer. However when I play it has sound looping problems and when I get to the gameplay there are vertical black lines ALL over the screen. It just makes it horrible while playing as the alien as I can't see anything. Could somebody please help me? If this topic needs to be locked please direct me to a topic that will help me with my problems. Thanks!

Have you made sure all your drivers are up to date?

Im pretty sure they are. I'm playing in windows 7. Could it just be a issue with it being a old game on a new computer? I'lll do some checking.

AvP Gold Edition has some crippling bugs. You'd be better off downloading the game for $5 on Steam, then it works perfectly.

This.

I have heard some people can get it to work but it really depends on your PC build. The only steps you can try are running under administrator (in shortcut properties), using xp service pack 3 compatibility mode and Dling a DX9 mod from here:

If for whatever reason steps from the first link don't work for you try here:

Hope this helps.

There was a way to fix this (or a problem similar to this) for Windows XP, you just rename the avp.exe file that the game had something else.  This worked because Windows XP also had an avp.exe file and the computer just activated both files when the game started up.

If it doesn't work I recommend reinstalling the game (It Should Help).
