Game Crashes right before kill is awarded
« on: January 12, 2002, 07:57:32 PM »
Recently In the MA, right before kill credit is awarded my whole AH crashes.  What is causing this? I was in the training arena and this didn't happen once

I have

AMD Athlon XP 1900+ @1.6Ghz
512MB Pc-2100 DDR RAM
GeForce 3Ti200 with 21.80 drivers

I found out it wasn't due to the person dying.  It seems that the game crashes to desktop every 30-90 minutes.  I don't know why the hell it is doing this but it is annoying me.  Can anyone help?

I also am seeing this problem, and would like to know if you got any response. It seems to make no difference as to what I am doing in a game. Sometimes just prior to making a kill, other times just sitting in tower, etc...

I had this problem too a while back. Seems it was a faulty memory chip. If you have multiple modules,  (i.e. 2 or more) try removing all but one and play the game to see if it crashes. If it does, try the next module and do the same until the process of elimination solves the problem.

Make sure that DIMM1 always has a module in it  (consult your manual) or your system may not boot up.

Hope this helps.

wow. This sounds exactly like the problem i just went through. Are you having any other issues with your computer? I thought I wasn't, but I reinstalled windows as a last resort, and that worked for me. Takes only about 20 minutes or so (mind you have to reinstall anything else that wasnt there originally).
hope this helps.
