Battle Crash & Random Close

[jjcun]

I installed the game form the download off your website and had a couple problems.

1. Just as many others have already added to the forum when I started a battle the game caused my video card not to work. The screen was just black except for the control. No planets or ships. As was suggested I turn all the graphic settings down and the battle would load with the ships and planets. I played around wiht teh setting and found out it had to do with the shadows level. I have a GeForce 120.

2. None has reported with error, but this one was the most upsetting to me and caused great concern. After installing, the game and having the other problems as outlined in issue 1 another strange thing started to happen not in the game, but every other game. While into the game for some time, about 30-45 minutes the game would simplify minimize by itself to the desktop. I can maximize the game, but this keeps happening. This only happened after installed Armada.
I could not solve this by reverting the system to just after the game was installed, updating my video drivers, and updating Direct X. I finally reinstalled my computer from the other hard drive wiping out any such problem. I liked the game so far but I am very afraid to even attempt to reinstall it since I am afraoid this might happen again.
