The game crashes in decisive situations

unmerged(46897) · Aug 24, 2005

Well after having played now for a good amount of time,I noticed that the game likes to crash often on my pc,especially in situations when important countries(germany,great britain,japan,sovjet union) are being annexed.This happens regardless which version of HOI 2 I'm using(and I don't have any modifications for HOI2 installled).
Apart from the fact that this wouldn't make a very precise bug report

I wonder if my Amd Athlon 64 3400+ may be the cause for the often crashes,as I don't use an 64 bit OS(I'm just having the regular Win Xp home with all updates and service pack 2)?

Thanks in advance

Well those would be very heavy processor/Memory points.
So if you have any trouble with your system it is likely to show at that kind of time.

Please run a DirectX Diagnostic:
Start menu –Run - then type Dxdiag, then select each tab across the top of the window, and run the tests on each tab. Then select “Save All Information” button in the lower right of the window. This will bring up a dialog box to allow you to select a name for the file where the information will be saved. You can save it right on the desktop as this will make it easy to find. Then copy the contents of that file from the start to the heading that says “DirectX components” then paste what you have copied into a post in this thread.

Well you have VIA drivers, which are known to be really buggy. Not much you can do about that except always try and have the latest drivers.

Ok.Thanks for the advice.I'm going to download the newest drivers now for my motherboard.Didn't even think about that this could be the cause but now that you mentioned it...

jpd · Aug 25, 2005

Yeah. I can be a pain in the royal b*tt to get a system with a VIA chipset (especially the older ones) working reliably. And the AGP drivers usually are, when things do go wrong, the main cause (or at the very least a large contribution to the cause, as most of the time it's a combination of hardware and drivers that mess things up).

Same issue

Castellon,

I have often had the same problems as the above user; my system crashes in large diplomatic situations, and the liklihood seems to increase when the action is more and more ahistorical (I'm playing a game right now as Italy where I've got control of Stalingrad, Baku, and Sverdlovsk, and so the Germans have Moscow and Leningrad, thus when Bitter Peace event triggers, it seems to just not be able to take it and the game crashes). I've followed the instructions above and have the text file of my Direct X diagnostic, should I post the results to you for any possible help? Let me know, thanks guys, Paradox is the greatest!!!

Matt

Castellon · Aug 29, 2005

Feel free to post it and I will take a look to see if anything jumps out at me.
Other than that if it is repeatable crash with a save game, then you can submit the save, just follow the instructions in the sticky thread to report a bug.
