Uru Complete Chronicles crashes when I try to exit the game. It also
freezes when I step in water. Anyone else experience this? Thought it
could be my graphics or sound drivers, but I've updated them both to no
effect. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no effect.

I also have the freezing problem you described. Just sometimes and only when
in water.
Have to wait a few seconds and the game continues
Didnt have this on my 'old' computer, so it could be a graphics driver
problem or some other software/hardware incompatibility.
Also have a geforce (6800gt) and dx9.0c, the rest is totally different.

Never solved it. Only had it in the original Uru part, not in one of the
expensions.

regards,
Marcel

I've also noticed that it usually only occurs in the two eder ages.
Sometimes the game will resume after it freezes for a while, but sometimes I
have to reboot my machine. I've tried running the game with all the sliders
maxed out as well as with all the sliders set to minimums with no effect.
I've got all the latest drivers and bios. I've heard that there is a beta
driver for NVIDIA that may help but I haven't tried it. This is most
annoying.
