arnoz Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Not quite sure, read the readme file or manual. Maybe you need more than 256Mb of ram or maybe you have to install SP2. Or you can test you ram... But i don't see what could ne the problem. Nothing shows up on the blue screen? There should be some blabla about the crash.

arnoz Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Geez, am i invisible? As i said before, install SP2. I read a lot of people having SA crashes with SP1 and not having anything anymore with SP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillies Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Some other things to try/check - make sure you have the newest video driver, make sure you have installed chipset drivers, or see if some newer ones are available, also see if there have been any new BIOS images for your motherboard (although this is a longshot, I once stopped a game crashing on a computer by updating the BIOS).

bmwz4 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've updates all my motherboard drivers and the Nvidia driver but it still crashes. I haven't updated the bios, because I'am afraid to mess it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaka Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've updates all my motherboard drivers and the Nvidia driver but it still crashes. I haven't updated the bios, because I'am afraid to mess it up. DON'T mess with your BIOS unless it's really necessary ! RIGHT Click "My Computer" / Properties / Advanced / Startup & Recovery / un-click "Automatically Restart" Hopefully the next time the BSOD happens you'll get an Error Code you can trace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmwz4 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Tee I've the same problem but sp2 doesn't work. What do you mean with updating your sound card, new driver? The blue screen says: 1. update all your drivers of your hardware. 2. If this doesn't work delete all your drivers and software I've updated all my drivers and it still gives the blue screen so I guess I've to delete all my driver according to the blue screen. But after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
