SPWaW suddenly crashed to desktop during play.

[Intruder]

Fresh install of 7.1
Win XP
AMD XP2000+
512MB DDRAM
Geforce 4Ti 4600
7200 RPM 80Gig HD
Newest drivers
Sound Blaster Live Value
Plexwriter 40/12/40 CDRW

Every once in a while during play the game crashes suddenly without warning or error. It simply drops to desktop. Never in the exact same place but in 20 minute play each time it has happened 7 out of 10 times. Below is a copy of my DXDiag. Any help is greatly appreciated. I spent over 40 hours downloading this game and would love to play it in extended periods:)

Thanks,

Welcome, but way more info then I could ever want or use. Please read through all threads related to this type of problem. One bad thing right of the bat is the SB Live soundcard, this card has always been a problem for SPWAW for unknown reasons. A couple of quick things to try though. Disable all programs running in the background such as Anti-virus, under DXdiag, were all this info came from, reduce your sound card hardware acceleration to none, if it helps slowly bump it up until problems reoccurs. Try running the game at 800x600x16 resolution this is what it was designed to be run at. Try running the game in compatibility mode (Win 98), try running the game directly from the mech.exe file, this bypasses the autorun menu. Look in the directory MatrixGames\SPWAW\Save and delete the files steel.prf and holder.txt(if you have one) and then restart the game. Any other possible fixes I might of missed can be found within similar threads through out the forum, unfortunately about 5% of gamers exerience these type of unexplained crashes that never get solved. Remember after playing back-up up your save files in a back-up directory, for safe keeping because CTD's can corrupted save files in use which means all the your hard work could be lost. The files are located in the MatrixGames\SPWAW\Save for normal scenario and Campaigns and in the MatrixGames\SPWAW\MegaCam\Save if you have purchased a MegaCampaign CD and you are playing one of them. Please keep us updated on anything that happens good or bad, so we can continue from their so we don't wind up attempting the same fixes over and over again.

Ive had this same problem.The best thing that helped was making a new shortcut and run the mech.exe instead of the autorun that come with the install.Its till does crash but not as often,just save every good turn.
