New install problems with D3

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.doom (More info?)

When ever I enter the lift after leaving the droid for my first mission,
the computer just stalls.......... even after I have installed the update
and also reinstalled the program.


Athlon XP 2400+
1024Mb RAM
Asus A7N8X-E
Asus Radeon 9600XT

Any ideas ?

HMMMMMMM me either , i had to do a full reformat and reinstall to
get Doom 3 working for me, somthing was stuffed up with my system.

If you have your vidcard fast writes on turn it off also chnage your
agp from 8 to 4 , that might help.

You never know.

Well, the crashes have corrupted my system so a full reformat and reinstall
is now necessary. This has really p*ssed me off. I bought an XBOX just to
prevent games crashing my system...why i bought another PC game i do not
know!

Anyway, thanks for the tips...

I hit a "bad" spot on my second run thru. When I hit F9 to quick load, it
would error out and crash to the desktop. Try restarting in another spot,
unless you already did that.

Cos you can't get PC games on xbox?

Have you tried running chkdsk/scandisk on you drives.
I had a similar problem that turned out to be a HDD developing bad sectors.
