Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks problems, problems and more problems...

lo guys,
like i say, problems...

have this problems with both ways of installing the game( install + 1.44 patch and install + 1.32->1.4->1.41...1.44)its a clean install, defragmented and all that, no HDD clusters broken...
when CDcheck is installed (@100%)and i created a shortcut on mly desktop i get the error "Windows recovered from a serious error"(no harm to the game tho).

Emcumbered : Deathknight is emcumberedj @ 1400/2000, my hero @ 1500/2150.
Saving : i get errors when saving like "there was a problem with saving onto ur HDD"(makes my saves looks like XXX.tmp and quicksave5.save.temp.

depending on how long i play the game i get these problems:
After 5 quicksaves i cant quicksave anymore(need to delete the Qsaves)
After 2 quicksaves i cant create anymore(even when deleting them)
when a "quicksaveX.tmp" is created, i cant quicksave anymore(untill deletion of the .tmp save)

items r not sellable to merchants

thats it for the moment( makes u prolly wonder if i have a original CD)
Believe it or not, its original and non damaged

hopefully there can be some fixes to it cuz i'm kinda bored to reinstall the game again (for the 5th time:)

thnx in advance,
Bonezy

My first thought is - how much free space do you have on your hard drive?

If you have only a small amount of free space, you may be using it all up with the savegames, which are quite large...

according to game i got 17.64GB free,windows says 17.8GB free space so i dont think that thats the prob...

thnx for answering tho <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hope this is not your problem:

I had the same problems when the game first came out. The problem turned out to be a failing Hard Drive for me. I had the dealer who sold the computer to me check it out and he replaced the CD Drive, the Hard Drive, and the Memory (all at no cost since the computer was only a couple of months old) and the problem was gone.

You should only need the latest patch. Are you shutting down all non-essential programs before starting the game? There are several critical and gaming related patches for Windows XP.

Unique and quest items do not show up in the trade window, so can not be sold. Unique items have their names changed on act change, and are then sellable.


If it is a hardware problem;
The hard drive manufacturer will have a diagnostic program on their web site, which would be more thorough than Scandisk.

There are a couple memory testing programs you can try;
Memtest86 and MS Windows Memory Diagnostic
