Major freeze ups... can't launch game
« on: March 31, 2002, 06:29:26 PM »
Since the last patch I was playing last night and my computer locked up while in the hanger.  I had to shut down using the power off button and re-boot.  After that when launching the game, I'd get to a white screen and everything would freeze again.  Power off button and re-boot.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the game (with a manual delete of the htc folder after the uninstall).  The re-install was one of the version 1.08 issues.  Everthing worked fine off-line.  I then DL'd the newest version, uninstalled the older (with manual delete of older version htc folder) and re-installed the newest version.  Everything worked fine.  I then defragged my system and froze at the white screen again.  I uninstalled, defragged again, then re-installed fresh.  White screen freeze-up.  I've tried uninstall and re-install a few time since but can't get the game to boot.  It keeps freezing me at the white screen.  It always worked fine before.

Help!

BTW, I haven't tried to install any new drivers throughout this.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
