I have the Geforce 7950 in SLI mode, enabled the hardware mouse cursor in Windowed mode. The game will still lockup when 1. a research announcement is made at the next turn 2. designing a ship (turning the ship up, down, left & right)
Tried enabling the hardware cursor. Game last longer now. Still freeze at particular moments like 1. when a research completion announcement is made at the next turn. 2. when I was designing my ship (turning the ship up, down, left and right) I already have the latest video drivers for 7950GT..guess it's like what Frogboy said...incompatibility issue with the card. Will try with my Geforce 6600 tonight to see if the problem persists. Hope Stardock can resolve this
Me too except for GC II (and OS of course). Since I have not encounter any problem with my other applications or games, I can only conclude some coding in GC II is not doing it right, thus causing the system to hang. The best I can offer is to go back to my older Asus P5N32-SLI Deluxe mb, Geforce 6600 cards and old HDD (my secondary HDD now) and install the OS and game from fresh to see if it has any problem. If no problem, then I will format my HDD on my current mb, use the Ge
The Nvidia Geforce driver is definitely the latest at 93.71 now. It's not the beta (beta is 93.81). Hardware cursor = Hardware mouse cursor? I think I have enabled it before but still have the same problem. Will try it again tonight. I don't believe it's hardware because I have no issue with all other games. I have all the hardware demanding 3D games and so far, none has given me any problem. When the game graphics distort, the audio is still playing, my keyboard and mouse sti
I have set the game resolution as suggested but still no good. I have disabled the DVD Writer, disconnect the 2nd HDD, reseat the RAM and graphics card. Frustrated, I went back to play COH just to confirm that my system hardwares are okay and I was able to play it smoothly for the past half an hour. I heard others have less problem with 1.31 patch..maybe I should try it. Here's the latest debug.err Debug Message: Version v1.4x last updated on: Mon Oct 23 17:43:56 2006
The debugg.err is above. It is the one just after the game freeze last night. I have not play the game since then. My mb BIOS is the latest. My mb BIOS setting is default and I have not overclock any thing. The audio is onboard (driver is latest of course)
Oh..SATA harddisk..hmmm..ok, I will try switching the cable around. I have a WD Raptor 74GB HDD and you can see my setting above with the debug.err.

Oh..I have the smart exception running too but after the freeze, I have to reboot my PC and when I am back inside Windows (XP Pro SP2), there is nothing in the smart exception log.
At first I thought it was overheating too. So, I tried to play Company of Heroes, Fear and DOW at max setting without any problem. I have not (yet) overclock my graphics card or my motherboard and I have checked the temperature of my cards. It is normally at 45 deg and reach about 58 deg with COH after playing for 2 hrs. My motherboard temp is around 35 to 40 deg. I used water-cooling system and fans to maximise the cooling. With all the fans, it is abit noisy but I am sure my system is running
I have purchased and installed the game first from online and later from the CD and then patch it with 1.40X. The game run okay for about 5 to 8 min. After that, the screen graphics will distort slightly and then the game will freeze. The game can freeze at any screen, typically in the research screen, GNN news screen, plantet screen or I have to reboot the PC to get out of the freeze. I have two graphics cards Geforce 9750GT in SLI mode and I have the latest drivers. I am having an In
