Hello civFanatics forum,
I'm having problems with BTS. It is causing blue screens of death (BSoD) randomly when I click with my mouse. I can play a long time before BSoD happens (more than 3 hours).
Example :
- During a diplomacy event with a foreign leader. I click on one of the possibilities of reply and then BSoD.
- I have a missionary that is waiting for orders then I click on the mini-map, I can the screen change to the other location for 0.5 second and the BSoD.
I have the game for 3 days now and all the games I have played ended with a BSoD. I have patched up the game before I played for the 1st time with the latest version ( v : 3.13, 121MB). I have also updated my graphic drivers after the 1st BSoD without any effect. I have not had any problems when playing Civ4 Vanilla for the prior 2 years.
My hardware is :
- Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2
- Intel Core(TM)2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13 Ghz.
- ATI Radeon X1950 Pro (latest drivers)
- Asus P5B Deluxe
- Quantum FireBall 30 gig (Dont laugh...I have windows on it for nearly 7 years now and it has outlasted 3 other 'storage' disks combined )
- SeaGate 330 Gig 7200 rpm (Civ4 is installed on it).
- Creative X-Live 5.1
- Antec 500 Watt powersupply.
My resolution is 1280*1024 with all the details, textures in the options screen set to maximum (the game is smooth).
I must point out that when I was playing Civ4 vanilla I didnt get to see the missionaries or great people's little light show animations when they are doing they function in a city. Now with BTS I do (maybe the problem is related to that but I don't know what to do with it).
The only thing I have played in BTS is the 18Civ Scenario for the vanilla version.
Thank you for your time
