I'm running an amd Turion ml-30 processor and an ati x700 mobility graphics card and after approx 10-15 min of play the game bluescreens and reboots my system.
Not sure what is causing it.
(The computer is new so exclude hardware issues eg. bad ram)
Hope someone can help.
(*note i'm still just base building at this point, nothing fancy rarely more than 2 or 3 units running around because i havn't been able to get more off before it crashes)
Thx.

Blue screen fo death? Bring up this error again so you get another BSOD and tell us what the stop code is. Maybe then we can go as far as telling you you need enw RAM or you dont turn your computer off properly.

Error codes or no error codes? As far as I know this error is what happens when Spring encounters a divide by zero error, meaning most likely it's the mod makers fault for having some unit that somehow accidentally divides by zero in certain circumstances. I know XTA does this sometimes, but I don't know why, it's usually after very long games. Other then that TLL had one unit that would consistantly cause the blue screen when forcefiring it's third weapon via first person mode.

this thread for more information, although mostly it's just people saying that they think it's an impossbile to rectify bug, which I personally doubt.

It seems that this is an AI issue.
I switched the AI i was using to the NCAS or whatever, and the game didn't crash. The bot commander just stood there and did nothing but game was stable.
