When I started playing this game, I was amazed as the level of lock up's that I was having. At least once everytime I played I'd have a complete lock up and have to reboot. I more often experienced this online, but on a few occasions I had this problem offline as well.
I checked the BB and followed the suggestions, I found no conflicts, no problems at all with my comp.
I'm running an AMDK-6 350mhz, with the add on's of a SB X-gamer card, and a Voodoo3 2000. I normally run the desktop at 800x600.
While running the game, I normally chose 800x600 also, and was always amazed at ppl saying the graphics were great, cause my cockpit graphics (words, etc) were always "fuzzy". I started messing around with the in game display settings to alleviate my problems. Voodoo cards must stay at 16 bit, I didn't touch the z buffer or other options. But I did up my in game resolution to 1024x768.
After doing this I was startled on how well I could read the cockpit graphics now..hehe. And to date I've suffered no lock up's. None at all. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Now I thought this a weird solution, but for those having similar problems, anythings worth a try. If I do encounter a lock up I'll be sure to post it.
