February 20, 200620 yr Author oki, but shouldnt i use somthing to get rid off the old once.. like after i uninstal them? i tryed driver cleaner, didnt help much:S
February 20, 200620 yr Author okay here we go.. lets se if i can avoid a bluescreen:Pwell the good news.. no bluescreen.. the game just crashed with looping sound.. but thats not a driver problem is it?:S Edited February 20, 200620 yr by killahgorillah
February 21, 200620 yr Don't forget to look into updating your soundcard drivers as well. It's not uncommon for the sound to cause game crashes.
March 8, 200620 yr Author my soundboard is integrated with my main board. But i have dowloaded and installed some audio drivers from nvidia.. still every game i play crashes after 5 minutes.. luckily no bluescreens, but it crashes to desktop and i get an error from windows.. witch doesn't explain why it crashed.. just that it dit:S
March 9, 200620 yr have you tried turning the sound acceleration down in dxdiag?also, it may be worth trying the compatability tab in the shortcut properties, if its an older game it may be fixed running it in win95 comptabliity (this fixed an issue for me with an old game called ReVolt i found again the other day, would just crash to desktop whenever i tried creating or joining a multiplayer game, and on another computer the game would just randomly crash to the desktop)
