Well I posted what I assume is what is asked for of dxdiag. First 32 bit and then 64 bit. Rome settings and 5 more files were found in search. The only one that I can open, in addition to settings, with help from internet windows service too, is rome flag.file. The others are 3 savegames, and flagfiles.dds. I used Andrew T, Your text users\ name\local . . and find another setting, which I guess is the settings the game was installed with, or just a small alteration i did the day I installed it on my comp.
ERROR MESSAGE from windows is the ordinary little box which I recall says like:Rome; 'has stopped working', New box;'Windows is looking for a solution' and then very quickly, but uncomplicated, screen returns to Windows main. Has occured at least 6 times. Recently had 3 freezes too. One of those times windows box appeared 'do you want windows to search for a solution'. Clicked on it, froze for good, no visible search for solution. In the end had restart/shut off computer after every crash.
Edit: I think the log for that is my first post in this thread. There are more of those in ATI catalyst, and it seems its the numbers match the crashes.
There is no way I can finish a game without crash. It seems 100% of games crashes this way, and no other way. Always fast, but same speed/time it takes to close rome and to windows main. Happens in about 1 sec. Now there might be prosesses ingame that is demanding that contribute to crash, like big armies moving like 1. 26 legions 1. 14 legions, together with period economic output and so on. But that happens all the time. If there is some heating or time error in computer it seems, it is only for this game. Not for Hoi 3, or any other game which has the same? memory leaks for most players. Hoi3 can run all day. But as complicated this is, I guess small differences has different outcomes for different programs.
32 bit dxdiag.
