Heck, got 3 CTDs at fleet just now.

OK, I'm gonna re-install windows completly to kill liveware 3.0 from now in accordance with Skuzzy's advice.

We have almost the same configuration except the network card and the Adaptec.

Did you have updated your 4N1 ?

and get ride of the liveware it's pure junk
You can desactivate the SB16 emulation it just for backward dos compatibility.

Last point can you try with another ISP ? from my experience with squadies it can have an impact (how much I don't know ...)

I use myself the Omega driver for the GForce (but for windows XP) try the Win98 version http://users2.ev1.net/~dallasstar/omega_drivers/nvidia_w9x_omega_1182.exe
(it can't pork your config more than it's actually)

Mitsu · « **Reply #50 on:** October 22, 2002, 07:24:45 AM »

Straffo, I already installed the latest VIA 4n1 driver.
I tried Omega and Datonator 40.72 drivers both too.

Now I totally doubt Liveware 3.0 like skuzzy said in MA yesterday.

I wish you best of luck so

As you are about to redo your PC what about switching to XP ?
I didn't killed my FPS and overall stabilty was increased (using XP since 1 year without any trouble)

Last point wich in slot is your SB live ?

I hope it's not the one near the AGP slot as it's shared and can sometime product instability.

If you have some time before reformating I would like you to try AH after removing your NIC card and the Adaptec (move your SB live in anothe slot too if you can)

Mitsu · « **Reply #52 on:** October 22, 2002, 10:13:54 AM »

I re-installed system, I hope CTD no longer happens.
Skuzzy, first of all, I have installed SBlive drivers from CD, and updated driver from Creative website. Is this OK?

Straffo, I will install XP at some point. btw I insert SBLive! card to PCI-5.

Mitsu · « **Reply #53 on:** October 22, 2002, 10:19:45 AM »

LOL!

I got CTD at hangar. WTF!!!

I'm getting a lot of CTDs in A27 (friendly field).
Problem is not solved. ('<_`+)

Mitsu · « **Reply #56 on:** October 25, 2002, 12:55:12 PM »

I still get CTDs.

I will try to insert SB Live! to other PCI Slot.

Thanks.

Mitsu · « **Reply #57 on:** November 01, 2002, 10:47:39 PM »

I changed a PCI slot of SB live to #4 from #5, and changed audio settings to 3/4 notch.

A lot of CTDs happen again. especially in flight.

Turbot · « **Reply #58 on:** November 01, 2002, 11:28:58 PM »

Only CTD's I get are "Host Lost". If you get "Host Lost" CTD it is not the software.

Now that we got that out of the way...

Often only way to be sure it is NOT a hardware problem is a clean install of OS on a wiped (read fdisk here) harddrive. You could very well have a virus or some sort of odd software configuration - who know?

I could work this out for ya, but it cost ya the standard $85 an hour

Seriously, I will help as I can but only so much can be done by remote control.

Nash · « **Reply #59 on:** November 02, 2002, 02:00:18 AM »

Used to get them... Not a lot... but maybe once every three or four hours.

Changed to Win XP Pro a week ago and it hasn't happened since. I know zilch about computers so I can't even guess as to the reasons.
