Crashed straight away.

 

Updated to latest nvida driver for the M64 32 meg card.

 

PCI 64 sound card and 128 both make no difference.

 

Patch installed and every concievable update for the pc. Pc is stable and windows XP home edition with 256 meg of ram and duron 800 CPU. 60 gig disk with heap of room.

 

Game runs fast and smooth until a sudden lock up of sound and then it does or the pc crashes entirely.

 

Driving me nuts. Just played wolfenstein perfectly.

 

Followed the tweak guide no use, still crashes game or pc after 10 minutes of game play.

2 things to look at:

 

1. Your sound card. Latest drivers? Try turning you sound card's hardware acceleration down a notch. On my system (a very nice, fast one), cranking it all the way inevitably results in frequent crashes. Creative really dropped the ball compatibility and stability-wise when they went to PCI cards and haven't been able to catch up.

 

2. Do you have an AGP port? Do you have your motherboard's AGP drivers installed? Made all my lockup problems disappear when I installed the AGP drivers for my motherboard.
