Three crashes to the desktop today

[Benny Moore]

I've played Aces High II for about two weeks now and never had a game crash.  That is, I never had a crash until today.  Now, today, three times in a row, my game crashed in a dogfight.  It's always while checking my high six, and it has happened in at least two aircraft.  It's happened in the P-38, the P-51, and I think the P-47 as well.  It simply closes the game with the usual windows application error message.

Hmmm... seems a recurring problem yesterday.

If you keep getting crashes, well need more info to trouble shoot.

A dxdiag would be a good start.

Was there a new patch released recently? Cause all of these problems are coming at the same time.

I had my first crash ever last night.

It's not an answer that you want to hear, but my squad mate had a problem of crashing to desktop two or three times each sorty.  I think the problem was not in the game but in his system (OS) , either a virus or some other type of software that was down loaded without his direct permission.  Well, after he tried about everything he could , he bit the bullet and did a rebuild on his system.  Not just a restore but a complete rebuild of everything, OS, Programs, Drivers, redownloaded AH. That fixed his problem.

I also had a problem with crashing to desktop while playing AH,  I only reloaded the OS, and let it update to the latest version.  I didn't reload any other software including AH.  I no longer crash to desktop.

Benny  another crasher is the updates from HP.   It has been almost a yr since I ran into this one and it was affecting numerous players.  Recently had a major puter crash and had to system restore back to original config. Same problem surfaced after updating my HP printer.   If you have HP of any sort you might look at this as a potential cause     Good Luck
