Title: Odd little situation
Post by: rick93 on October 21, 2007, 04:47:26 AM
Hope someone may be able to shed some light.

The game works 99.9% perfectly, no stuttering, sound great, etc etc. no problems whatsoever.

However, and it's only since I've really been taking notice of when it happens, if I'm in a gv as a B17 passes over, the moment he drops ords, the computer crashes completely and reboots. All other planes are fine as are other gv's, sound effects etc.

I know it sounds bizarre, but since really taking notice of what was going on before each crash, a B17 had just dropped ords, or the ords were hitting the ground.

Let me know what, if any system info you require, and I will gladly oblige.

Odd....can you post the 1st 3rd of a dxdiag here m8 please. First thought is maybe your video card cant handle the amount of updates being parsed.....but that woudnt be confined to a specific plane.....
