Well, it seems that 40d15 has effectively solved any problems I had with the previous d# versions. It's working perfectly fine and I don't see any kind of problems so far.

I think I forgot to say that I am currently running on a 32-bit Windows XP - I'm not sure whether or not that helps in the troubleshooting, but as I have noticed with QuinRiva's post it seems that the bug affects both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows computers.

Well, that's..

If the window isn't showing up, then it's presumably failing prior to SDL initialization.

Not a whole lot happens that early, really. I can probably assume it's not a problem with SDL.. hm, if you turn on sound in init.txt, do you hear any?

Sound is on, can't hear anything.

The process *is* there - It shows up on the task manager and it remains there, chugging a fixed amount of ram and a slightly variating amount of CPU % (between 40 and 49), and only leaves when I force it to close. Besides of that there is no evidence that dwarf fortress is running at all: No window, no "Start the game in fullscreen" prompt, and no error messages.

I'm sorry I bring back a common issue, but even after updating my GPU drivers I still suffer the same problem (d14 doesn't even start). Is there any way to solve this after the "update drivers" solution has been tried?
Download and run glView, paste its output list of extensions supported here - make sure opengl actually works, in other words.

Sure. Here it is.

Mind you, the rendering tests in glView work perfectly.

Well I have the latest drivers for my graphics card (GeForce 8500GT), but I guess it won't hurt redownloading and reinstalling them. Will edit when done.

EDIT: Nope, same thing. I wonder if there's another way around this?

Well, both 40d13 and 40d14 simply don't work for me (I'm using WinXP) - The process is there, using a constant 6816 KB of memory and ~45% of CPU use, but I get no prompt of anything, let alone the fact that the game doesn't even start. Tried changing priority, but it's still not working so I have to kill the process by hand. Mind you, 40d works perfectly fine.
