Crashing issue

boogaboo · Feb 14, 2008

Hi all,
Playing the 1936 scenario as Germany. Running HOI2 w/ Armaggedon.
Have a strong PC (2.6GHz Duo Core, Vista 64Bit, heavy graphics card etc)
In year 1942 now and Japs(ally) started teh war with USA/Brits/French. I control a military alliance with Hungary, Japan, Yugo, Italy, Austria, Chezk, Turks, Greece, Romania.
I have assumed military control of them all. (like the managment)

Issue:
Game keeps crashing after unspecified time. (Never enough time to get to an autosave) The crash is a lock up and I have to end the task via the Task Manager.
Also, crashes (locks up) a lot when I try to manually save.
I am running the latest version of the game I think.
I have done the basic tune up of my PC to make sure I am good.

Need help here and the game just became un playable.
Is Vista 64 an issue? Not sure whyI got years of play no problem.
\Loaded an older save game too and same issue.

Thanks
Kevin

Vista 64 is not the issue... i have HOI2 Installed on my PC with Vista 64 bit for many moons now and never had a crash.

Does it lock up on any game... or just that particular saved game?

Hi Cory,
Thanks for taking the time.
It started to lock up at 1942. When massive fighting broke out and I am controlling a lot of stuff. Yet I think this is just a coensidance as I tried loading a older saved game and same issues.

So, I have uninstalled completly and reinstalled all three products (HOI2, Doomsday, Armageddon). I copied my save game file and will see what happens.

The error windows spits up says there is some for off "Illegal memory use" that the O/S was "protecting" me from and hence kills HOI2. Odd that is played just fine for years.

I have lots of RAM and tweak the registry and such to ensure they are running well.

Any ideas?

Kevin
Really don't want to loose this game as it is going well (dead Russia by end of 41'

)

Note: No problems were found. But open to ideas here. I tried another save and sure enough crash (lock up) in time.
I shut off Windows Defender as one thread suggested (no difference)

Tried loading a older game save (before the war breaks out about 1 month before) and I have only small amounts of stuff going on. Same crash (but to desktop)

Why are you sharing so much RAM with your video card.

Try turning that down a bit.... to like Nothing....

Corey

boogaboo · Feb 18, 2008

Video/Ram sharing

Ok...
How does one do that in Vista? hehe

coreymas · Feb 18, 2008

There should be an Nvidia controller program (in program files) installed where you can configure your Video card. In there turn down the amount of system ram you are sharing with the card.

Corey

boogaboo · Feb 18, 2008

Thanks!

Just want to shout out a thanks for you man.
You keep this tech forum going...

I also noticed the "Ghost Fleet" bug and I check my games and yep I have em. Maybe this is why I am crashing?

Did a snoop in my Bios and updated (Have Asus p5n32-e) and there is no setting that I can find for changing the shared memeory. Also, I reloaded the latrest video driver pack from NVidia and the tools that they have seem to have no place to change this either. Any ideas?

More info

Well I still crash all the time.

I tried my save games on my XP pc and same issues.
The game crashes at any odd moment. It seems to happen most when a bunch of events happen. But, sometime very little is going on and it crashes.
I also tried a game with me not having control of my allies armies etc and that did get rid of the phantom navies but I still crash out.

I tried the game on my Laptop Vista 32 - same issues.

Maybe it is an Armagedon issue?

coreymas · Feb 21, 2008

There is no configuration program for your video card in Windows... maybe somewhere in Start/Programs.....?

Anyways.

Would you be willing to try something out for me (to regulate your crashing issues)

On your Vista machine.

1. Uninstall HOI2 DD using the Add/Remove programs (or whatever it is called in Vista) in the Control Panel.

2. Reinstall HOI2 DD. Do not install it in the default location. Install it in something like C:\Games.

3. Patch HOI2 DD with 1.3a.... find the link in the HOI2 DD forum

4. Test HOI2 DD... run it for a while .. see if it still crashes.

If it doesnt installl Arma..... Make sure you install it in the same folder as DD.

Patch Arma with 1.1 ......

Test and see if it crashes.

Corey

Ok

Will do and post results... thanks.

Reloaded HOI2/DD 1.3 on my Vista 64 box....no problems.
Installed to a new subdirectory (not default)
Playing as Admin
Started a few new scenarios...played them for awhile no problems (Not controling other nations military yet)
Was able to save without crashing.

Next steps.
Play full game and get control of a large portion of forces to see if the activity causes the crash.

Report to follow

Hi Cory,
Been running a large 1926 game of DD with current patch on the Vista 64 system. I have not installed Arma yet.

The game is going fine.
Saves fine.
No ghost fleets.
No crashes yet (in 1941) and have control of several countries mailitaries and in a large war with Russia and National Spain.

May be an issue with Arma and Vista 64 then. It seems other posters are reporting crash issues with the program.

Thoughts?

Too bad as I like the features from Arma.

coreymas · Feb 26, 2008

I have Arma installed on my Vista 64 system and i have no problems whatsoever.

Did you turn off UAC before you installed Arma?

Corey

boogaboo · Feb 26, 2008

Uac

Yep was teh 1st thing I did when I got Vista as the UAC pissed me off to no end. So I gutted it.
I will try an new install as admin and monitor the results again an post.

Thanks again.
Kman
