IGI 2 : Crash a lot :(

21-02-2003, 10:11 PM

I'm having major problems with this game in it freezes a LOT!!

The easyest way to get it to crash is start the first level zoom in using the "B" key then move the mouse about and bang get a black screen with a few lines at the top and the sound looping over and over...

If you don't do this and just play the game you might play it ok for 5 mins but then it just locks up solid

...

anyone have any solutions?

I'm running a AMD XP 2100 Geforce 4600 with latest dets also tried the 3xxx range as well and still crashes, also have a soundblaster live 5.1 card in there... any help TIA!

Can you post any software apps you have running in the background??

Running Norton Personal Firewall, Timbuktu Pro Winzip, and thats it, but I have quite all those programs before running the game and it still does it... seems to be either a graphical problem or sound driver problem but I am running the latest drivers for both sound and graphics...

I've got absolutely the same problem - the game won't run more then 3 minutes. The easiest way to crash it - to press B (binoculars) and turn mouse wheel. The sound will repeat itself and the screen will be black. I DO NOT have any background processes. My configuration is:

Athlon XP 1500+ & KT 266A
Albatron GF 4 Ti 4200 det. 40.71 or 41.09
SB Live! Value
512 DDR
Windows ME

I haven't got any problems in all latest games (Unreal 2, UT 2003, NOLF2). I liked IGI very much and see if you can solve this problem.
