Ofp problem

[dude123 0]

Hi i'm running OFP on: P3 1ghz, 256mb sdram, win2kpro, radeon 8500 64ddr. I get in the game either hosting or just joining a game in MP. And sometimes i can play for a couple of hours. But usually right when i join a server not in the accual game play or sometimes in the game play. Bam!! My display goes to a blue screen says something but my computer restarts. I don't have enough time to see what it says cause my machine restarts. its not the normal blue screen for windows. It has a bunch of crap at the top of the screen like uni code or something. Anyways I've tried this game on like 6 computers and it works on none of them. I think this game is one of the best games ever. So congrats to the developers

In Windows XP you must uncheck the "automaticly restart" checkbox. right-click "my computer"/properties/advanced/startup and recovery settings

Thanks Aldega! I will give it a try. And let everyone know my results in win2k

Well it doesn't seem to automatically restart anymore thanks. But now my game after hosting when i try to exit the game freezes and i end the task but the flashpoint.exe is still talking like half of my memory up so i have to restart my machine.

I've had this problem in the past when hosting, seems to be a reasonably common complaint, what I do is when I'm done hosting instead of clicking cancel session I simply alt+tab then ctrl+alt+del to close the opf.exe, brute force way of doing things but it doesn't seem to cause any harm

Thanks for the advice I do that but... Flashpoint.exe stays running as a process in the background that I can't end. It takes up like 128mbs of sdram.... haha so i have to restart my computer everytime i'm done playing ofp
