hi lynn,
i did all there is to be done. i've read the tech faq and and other post regarding crashes and manual installations.
drivers are all up to date.
aye!, 'tis been in 16bit mode as suggested in the faqs.
scandisked, defraged and all drives 'ave no problem.
no other applications are running when the game is being played 'xcepting maybe the explorer and systray.
about 15 gigs of free space would sure be enough.
now the last part, i am not exactly sure 'bout it. cuz i don't how to check if it is or it is not.
no error.txt has ever been lodged down me pc's throat ever since i installed the game and started playing it.
