erfworm 0 Posted January 27, 2003 Ok after I reformatted my computer I reinstalled resistance, and keep getting random crashes. Please take note res worked fine before, and its 100% legit. Any ideas on what I should do? Symptoms are sudden loss of sound, then a complete system restart. This is also the only game that does this. Is it a possibility it activated Fade? No cracks or warez OFP is on my computer. Here are my specs... Win XP Pro 512 DDR Ram GeForce 4 4400 128 MB 40 GB HD Soundblaster Live! SC 5.1 Speakers Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted January 27, 2003 FADE doesn' cause crashes or lockups. Possible causes are driver problems, or hardware problems (excessive heat, too little current from the PSU, bus/CPU/peripherals timing out of specification). After reinstalling XP, did you download SP1 and any other fixes offered by Windows Update? SP1 is must-have, as are many Hotfixes that came out after SP1.

erfworm 0 Posted January 28, 2003 I did install SP1 and the most recent fixes and Im sure its not a heat issue, Ive started flashpoint up after my computer has been off for the night and 1 minute into the game it looses sound then a while after that maybe about 2-5 minutes it restarts. And I forgot to mention my processor which is an AMD Athlon 1.7+. So Im guessing it has to be a driver of some sort, although OFP is the only game that does this....very strange.

erfworm 0 Posted January 28, 2003 Hey Suma thanks for the resources I was going to send in an email and all included files only to realise I cant find either file in my Flashpoint folder. I also did a file search on my computer for Flashpoint.rpt and Context.bin files and came up with nothing. Is it a possibility you could lead me to finding or creating the files needed. Thanks.

erfworm 0 Posted January 28, 2003 lol thanks Avon just the problem is OFP isnt making the files after it crashes...lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted January 28, 2003 You are correct, if your system Blue Screens, OFP will not get a chance to write the files that Suma is asking for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erfworm 0 Posted January 28, 2003 So I take it I should just send them an email without the files? Thanks for the help. Ill post anything else if anything else happens to stop by on the way. Lata Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
