I just got a new computer, and BW2 works fine, but when I tried to play BW1, it crashes at runblack.exe.  Can anyone help me or point me to a thread with the old answer to this question?
 
Phew, at least BW2 works. :)

When does it crash, when playing it or during startup?

This might be a silly question, but do you have the V1.20 patch installed?
 
At startup.  And I don't have the V1.2 patch installed, I can't find it in the download section, just the 1.1 patch (which I do have installed) and the 1.3 patch (which I don't need).
 
Do not install the V1.30 patch. It's only for the P-5 glove and can cause problems.

Here's the link to the V1.20 patch. I'd suggest uninstalling B&W and then reinstall it and apply the V1.20 patch only.

Yep. B&W1  will only work with the new service pack if you have the 1.20 patch installed, but don't get 1.30.
 
I installed the 1.2 patch and that did the trick.  The graphics look much better than I remember them, so my new video card must bring out the graphics better than my old computer.  Thanks.
 
Good, glad that worked. :)

I remembered that also with B&W that it did look much nicer after a video card upgrade.
You'll probably find it plays much snoother also.
 
i had the sam problem, i installed the patch and now it crashes without the runblack
it just crashes on it's own
help! (please)
