First off, as far as the video advanced settings go, I'm set up on a Radeon 9500 Pro 128mb AGP8x card on an 8x MB. The Radeon sets thing like AA and anisotropic filtering to 'application preference' as default, vs. a set 2x, 4x, etc. Should this make any difference? Can RON make calls to the video driver to change these settings as it pleases?
I've completely updated all drivers as of yesterday and am still having the same system hang. Nothing else hangs this box.
I'm using -
- Athlon 2400xp proc on ANI 8x AGP (VIA) MB
- 256 MB PC3200 RAM (I need to get more I know, but
should be ok for RON)
- ATI Radeon 9500 Pro AGP DX9 hardware support-
resolution at 1280x1024x32 on 19" LCD flat panel
- SB Audigy 5.1 Gamer w/altec 5.1 speakers
- (2) 36Gb 15k RPM Seagate Cheatah SCSI drives on
Adaptec RAID controller (Game runs from a 40Gb IDE
right now until I get the bugs worked out on this
lockup)
- XP Home with all updates applied
- 425 Watt switched PS
Creative Driver level - 5.12.1.38
ATI driver level - 6.14.10.6343
DirectX level - 9.0a (4.09.0000.0901)
Other installed components - onboard 10/100, Creative Labs Video Blaster tuner / DigitalVCR card (not tied in or overlaid on video), 10Mbit phone line network card for remote MP3 players, DVD, CD Burner.
The game will get 10-15 minutes in and then freeze, sometimes making a blip noise over and over until the machine is hard reset.
Any assistance or advice is greatly appreciated! The game runs fast and smooth when it runs, and it's killing me that it doesn't work!
Thanks!
