What version of Giants are you running? Try reapplying the 1.4 patch.

i used to get that on most singleplayer games, i had everything in graphics set to high, but when i turned to lowest (i have a crappy comp) it worked and the screen didnt show up. U can try that

This problem might be due to to you running the gforce 3 renderer. Can you tell us what reason it gives you for the wintry cool game error? Is the error about textures or what?
