Quite. There were numerous attempts to fix it, some quite ambitious, but it turned out to be impossible as they'd done "something bad" to the memory management at a level that rendered it unfixable (someone mentioned a problem with macros which sounds like the sort of programming nasty that would explain it). Plus an obvious lack of error checking and so on. It needed a lot of mods (IMHO) but of course that used more memory which hastened its inclination to keel over.

Re CP77 crashing one's entire PC, in my case that turned out to probably be an AMD driver bug where a recent update messed up the fan controls and caused my card to cook. Although my R9 390 was a bit long in the tooth, I wasn't quite ready to look for a replacement and had no idea about the ongoing GPU drought. Well, until I did. I was probably lucky to get a not-quite-current-gen Nvidia for about RRP.

And re. "garbage sentiment", "handholding" etc, let's not go there, 'k?
