Title: Disco isn't dead!
Post by: gofaster on November 12, 2005, 09:20:22 AM
Friday night must be disco night in the MA. Twice within an hour.

Then the fun carried over to the SEA, where everybody was disco'ing together en masse before they even left their home base sector.  

As Van Morrison would've sang (had he been there), we were all disco'ing in the moonlight, everybody dis-ahh-ppearing out of sight...

Sounds like a problem with your computer and not the software.

Same exact thing here....bet we don't have the same hardware, hell I bet we don't run the same OS.  But I still get these same things.  :(

Both of you post your system specs. A crash like that is not good for your computer at all and can cause more damage.

My PC locks up, and I'm fairly certain it is the Turtle Beach Santa Cruz drivers I'm using.  I didn't have problems until I swapped cards.

Dimension 8100 1.2 Ghz
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card
No clue how much memory, probably close to max
can't remember my video, same as what came with the system.

What these people are describing isn't just a disconnect bug. This bug tottaly wrecks there PC.

It could be drivers, Memory, or anything.

Try to go to your graphics card site and see if there are any updates to your drivers. Seems there are a couple people that have this happen so there may be some type of memory leak in the game or something.
