update after i reboot i can get in the war for about 30sec then i get a DeConn. after that i keep gettin that error message again.
-
Did you change anything in the settings?
If not, still go back and check your video settings (the one you can change on startup screen, resolution etc). Two days ago i got a CTD with error message and after that those settings got changed to defaul and wouldnt let me log in at all.
If that doesnt work. Back up all your custom folders. SETTINGS (!), Sounds, Sights, Films, Terrains, Skins, screenshots.....
Then try deleting your setting folder. Upon launching the game, it should create a new one with default settings. Check if the game works on those default settings.
If it does, copy your old settings back in one by one (all hps files, kmp, video.cfg, the jms files.....). After each time restart the game and see if it still works. That way you can weed out the cuplrit.
-
ok i did a systom restore and it is working again but i keep getting Disconnects at random any ideas?
-
How is your connection looking?
Netstat in game (right click map)
Ping details on startup screen
http://www.pingplotter.com (run a trace on both arena servers)
-
I have the same problem, AH will run for a while then I get the white screen with the M/S Error box, and ah crashes, and then sometimes it runs fine for hours. Its the only online game I have that does that too, the rest work fine, I havent ever chenged anything or did anything wierd to the game so I'm clueless
-
I have been getting crashes at randomne times also since the arena change. I'll get the aces high has encounted a problem and needs to cloes, get the white screen (to a black screen) and the last sonds i hear during the game just keep replaying and replaying. I lose the mouse pointer too and have to ctrl alt del for task manager or ctrl esc and right click on the program bar and select close to get the error message up. until thenm it just keeps playing the last wav i heard. Any ideas what i can do to correct it? it happens multiple times a day. I'll post the error message details the next time i get it
-
Yea same here
only I don't get teh luxary of pressing ctl alt del, I get to ull the plug instead and defrag my computer.
-
dmf, Bear, post a DxDiag report with your system specs (only need the first 3 rd or so like above), also run a ping plot as Schatzi suggested above. The more info you post here, the better chance to get some help.
-
I'll run teh dxdiag and put it up, as for the ping, mine is good, my netstat is good ipconfig is good, aybe one of the id10t's in H2H is trying to run Aces High on an old 486?
-
Ok Here's my Info. My ping on the start page is between 50 and 70.

Here's the technical detail of the error messgae. Any Idea's anyone?
-
2nd half of error report
-
Bear, it looks to me that your system is on the low end for performance. What are your in game video settings? (when you load the game, click video instead of going online/ offline) With your system I'd set everything as low as I could. Maybe switch to 800x600 res, make sure the "preload" buttons are NOT checked, and drop the texture size (if its at 512 go down to 256, if 256 go down to 128).
510 meg of ram is JUST enough memory to run windows let alone a game on top of it, and with you video being an intergrateted chip with only 64 meg, well lets just say you don't really have a "gaming rig" there. Turning down the graphics in the game could make it playable with out the crashes.
Good luck!

Ok...same problem. Can be playing fine with no problems for 10 minutes to an hour.....then an error message (sometimes) "AH has encountered an error...." and a black screen and computer shuts down and reboots. Any ideas??

If your computer SHUTS DOWN on its own, id do two things first.
Check your temperatures and voltages - might be running hot.
Hunt for spyware/malware.

Ya, it sounds like you have a fan not running. The game is pretty hard on a vedio card, so as it makes your card work harder, it makes more heat. If they get too hot, they will shut down your system. Normal use of a computer....word processing, browsing the internet and such won't push the video card so you won't get the shut downs.
Take the side cover off your computer and check the fans. Most have 3... 1 on the CPU, 1 in the power supply, and one on the video card. Dust will build up on the cooling fins and in the fans and rob them of cooling. Too clean them, shut down your computer and use a "Blast can" to blow out the crud. Small cans of compressed air can be found at RadioShack. Also a CLEAN, NEW paint brush can be used to brush things out too, just be gentle with it.
If after cleaning it out the fan doesn't restart with the computer it will have to be replaced. Aftermarket fans are avalible for most situations.
Good luck

u have no memory docc. ur hard drives are running overtime. after all the baggage u lucky to have 100 mb's sys ram in the game.

I have been experiencing screen lockups and fatal errors during online play for a couple of months now. I ran DxDiag and nothing seems to be out of order, I'll paste it below.
MOST of the time, it will occur when I am talking on vox or someone else is transmitting, but not always. It does not seem to make a difference if my screen is filled with eye candy or not - the last two times I was in the middle of a large body of water with no land in sight.
I will be flying along and suddenly everything freezes (last sounds continue to repeat) for about 20 or more seconds, then I will warp back (if I am in buffs, drones sometimes are shooting out ahead of me, etc.) and then I hold my breath to see if it will do it again. Usually I get a second, fatal screen freeze that mirrors the first, but this time at the end of the freeze the sounds stop, but the screen is still frozen. Sometimes my Windows mouse pointer will come into view when I move it, sometimes not. I had to learn the keystrokes for rebooting from the "Aces High has encountered an error and will not run" message. I always send an error report to MS, then reboot. Re-launching AH results in instant error message.
My netstatus and pings are usually very good. I always shutdown everything else before playing, so no AV, etc. is running, just the basics of XP after running EndItAll and Task Manager to shut down the garbage.
It is to the point that I get one or more dumps EVERY time I fly now. It is usually the reason I end up logging off.
Here is my DxDiag report:

Capn Mike have u ever updated ur sound card. Ur configuration is similiar to my old Dell and it has the same sound card. I also had the same problem with freezes. Been a couple of years so memory is foggy but think i went to Santa Cruz web site and downloaded a newer driver. I also played around with the configuration some. Got it to work fine after that. Hope that helps.:)
-
Also, you really need to install the 61.77 version of the NVidia drivers. The driver you are using will cause problems with your video card.

Thanks for the help guys. In my case I had 2 problems. I had 2 different brands of memory simms installed....took one out and reduced the memory to 512M and the game had no more memory errors but did have lower frame rates. Heat was the second problem. By taking the side panel off and having a desk fan blow onto the processor and video card the temperature stabilized and was much cooler. No problems now.
-
CapnMike, also turn down sound hardware accelleration to standard.
Docc, glad it worked out :).

thank you guys for posting this. its been happening to me lately as well.yesterday everything was fine. but last nite i logged on and it happened 7 or 8 times in a row. nothing was changed at all. it has been a frustrating couple of weeks. i dont know anything about computers so i guess im gonna have to hire someone to go through it.

Well, I didn't have time before my Squad Night to do a defrag or anything, but I tried rolling back the drivers to the 61.77 and that seemed to help. I flew for about 5.5 hours and didn't get a single screen freeze, but I am getting some small "stutters" during gameplay. I'll run a defrag and see if that helps.
Why is it that the newer drivers would cause these problems? Are there drivers newer than the 61.77 that still work well with AH?
-
I too got the ah has encountered a problem & needs to shut down error. I haven't changed any settings. I never had any errors before but yesterday I got that one.

CapnMike, NVidia and ATI optimize drivers for the currently released video cards. Sometimes this induces problems with older cards. In almost all cases, there is usually an older driver, for older video cards which will simply work better than newer drivers which are optimized for a different architecture.
All NVidia video cards, older than the 6000 series should be using the 61.77 drivers for the best and most stable performance.
All ATI 9000 series video cards work best with the Catalyst 4.12 drivers with the ATI Control Panel, not the Catalyst Control Center.
Anytime you get the Windows crash error, it is normally associated with either sound or video card drivers. Not always, but 99 percent of the time it is. People who allow the Windows auto-updater to run are in for a lot of stability issues due to vide and sound card driver updates.
