Load screen CTD Problem

I don't know if there should be a specific thread for a specific CTD problem...but that is something the moderators have to organise.

Well I have a CTD problem. The same as I have with EU2 when I run it in 1024/768, it load the first screen and then back to desktop without ending the game...I just have to click really fast with my mouse at the HOI/EU2 button to get back into the game. ...Well EU2 runs fine in 800/600 but HoI doesn't. I haven't begun playing the actual game yet...just the tutorial. And many times the game crashes to desktop when I either start a tutorial or end a tutorial....but also sometimes inside the tutorial. I have the music running from the CD.

Oh yeah I forgot I have installed the 1.1 patch! And I have the scandinavian version..


My specs are:

OS Name: Microsoft Windows XP Proffessional, Version: 5.1.2600
Build 2600

Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1800+, MMX, 3DNow, ~1526MHz

Motherboard: ECS K7S5A

RAM: 256MB

DirectX: DirectX 8.1 (4.08.01.0810)

Graphiccard: NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400 32.0 MB (6.13.10.3082
(English))

Soundcard: Aureal Audio (emulated)

Try renaming the AVI folder to AVIBak, this will tell us if it is a Bink problem.
 
You can find Detonator in the useful links sticky thread.

The drivers you are using are over 3 months old.

Download and install Detonator 40.72.

I did both these things and now it works fine! I huess it was the drivers mostly which caused this problem.

Thanks for your help

Excellent!

I think I remember seeing quite a few people with the problem having the same nvidia driver version you had - 30.82.

Good to know we can tell them to upgrade and that it should help. Thanks a lot for letting us know!

I also had the 30.82 drivers, and was getting a CTD every 45 mins or so with HOI.

I followed the suggestion of downloading the latest driver, and: bingo! Have been playing all day now without a single problem (touch wood ;) :p ).

Thanks!
