Posted February 14, 201312 yr Hi all, first post I have come across a very common problem which I could not solve, I followed installation instructions on Windows 7 and it worked, but when I tried it on my old computer which has Windows XP, a black screen occurs. I don't know what's the problem I followed the EXACT instructions. I'll give you a report on the "ForgeModLoader-client-0" 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [iNFO] [ForgeModLoader] Forge Mod Loader version 4.7.4.520 for Minecraft 1.4.7 loading 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] All core mods are successfully located 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Discovering coremods 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Found library file argo-2.25.jar present and correct in lib dir 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Found library file guava-12.0.1.jar present and correct in lib dir 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Found library file asm-all-4.0.jar present and correct in lib dir 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Found library file bcprov-jdk15on-147.jar present and correct in lib dir 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Running coremod plugins 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [FINEST] [ForgeModLoader] Running coremod plugin FMLCorePlugin 2013-02-14 16:58:09 [iNFO] [ForgeModLoader] Found valid fingerprint for Minecraft Forge.

February 15, 201312 yr Author I have already updated my drivers, and Minecraft runs smoothly even without Forge. But after I installed Forge it starts to crash
February 15, 201312 yr Update LWJGL. There's an article on the Minecraft Wiki on how to do so. There's an EAQ for a reason. Read it! "Note that failure to read this will make you look idiotic. You don't want that do you?" -- luacs1998 First rule of bug reports: More information is always better. Oh, and logs OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!!
February 16, 201312 yr Open Display Settings, go to the place where you change resolutions and such. Click the Advanced button, then the Troubleshoot tab that is in the new window opened. Adjust the slider back until minecraft works. (note: may cause other games to crash) Read the EAQ before posting! OR ELSE! This isn't building better software, its trying to grab a place in the commit list of a highly visible github project. www.forgeessentials.com Don't PM me, I don't check this account unless I have to.
