More "Game Crashes"

[Canuck12ca]

I'm having the same problem with the game crashing before completing one turn, similar to many other previous posts. I've been reading the forum for a while and tried the suggestions so far. I've made sure that I have the latest sound and video drivers. I'm running in windowed, low detail mode with non-player animation turned off. Still have the same problem. Any more ideas?

Hi, the "C-Media Wave Device" appears to be an on-board sound chip device. Please turn it off in the BIOS (your motherboard manual will tell you how) running a sound card and an on-board sound chip at the same time is known for causing errors.

I disabled the onboard sound. Same problem. I've noticed that the game crashes with the music looping. I removed the music files from the sound folder. No music, which is fine, but the game still halts with sound looping so, I put the music files back. Instead of ending the program with task manager, I waited and I get the "Windows has encountered a problem" pop up box. I've attached the file that this error generates in case that might help.

Also, here's the new dxdiag file (ie: with the c-media device disabled)

I'm no technical expert by any means but a review of the file you attached seems to indicate some sort of conflict with a product on your PC named "AutoPlay Media Studio 5.0 Professional Edition" and/or "Morgan Multimedia Stream Switcher." These may be programs/drivers for the built in audio hardware.

I'm pretty sure that Matrix has previously identified Morgan Multimedia Stream Switcher as software that does in fact cause problems with GGWaW.

I've uninstalled a codec pack that included the Morgan Multimedia Stream Switcher and have made it through about 5 turns. So far so good. Thanks everyone!
