Rome:Total War
« on: September 24, 2005, 09:02:41 PM »
Ok, I bought the game, and the demo worked like a gem on my comp..

Well the loading time is taking between 5-10 mins..

Is there a way to speed up this loading time?

Perhaps deleting other games and freeing up virtual memory etc?

I can't take this!!

Is it possible it's the processor or anything?

It runs find the battles etc. a bit slow on the large cities etc..

It's just the damn load time..

:(

My load time doesn't take that long.  Probably a minute to start up a campaign.  40 seconds or so to start up a battle.

I'm gonna go and try to update my drivers...

Would I need to re-install after that at all?

And if I needed to re-install is there a way to get around having to do the pro-louge again?
