Hi Folks,
It’s been a while since I played. Since that time I have switched from MSN dial-up to Sprint DSL. Also, of course we are now running AH II, Patch 5.
I entered the Main Arena and took up a Hurricane and just flew around to re-familiarize myself but soon ran out of fuel. I glided in for a landing (not perfect but it good enough). When the wheels hit the deck, AH crashed to desktop.
Also another problem - I can Alt-Tab out of AH but sometimes I cannot get back in. I get the white screen with the AH II title bar. Sometimes I can Ctrl-Alt-Del out of the white screen but sometimes it is totally locked.
System: 1.1 GHz AMD with a Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200.
Video Resolution, set in AH: 800 x 600, Max Tex. Size: 256 Unlimited frame rate.
Zone Alarm disabled during this period.
Here are some settings, courtesy of Norton:
