Matrix Games Forums

I have the game installed with both patches, but I still have a problem: the game locks up on launch 4 out of 5 times.

This is annoying! I have to re-launch until I get the scenario screen. Usually, the game locks up on the Title Screen.

Any solutions?

Hmmm ... that's strange. If I remember correctly, there were a number of problems with the sound files that plagued the game when it was first released, but I can't remember if they were addressed in a patch or not. You should do a search in the support forum.

This thread has something that sounds similar to your problem:

I had an issue also, on both of my PCs I think although more often on my laptop where the game crashes on startup.  Once I renamed the intromusic.wav to intromusic.bak it seems to work now.  Since you mentioned music had issues I looked at the sound files and since the game crashes during loadup it seemed intromusic would be the music it tried to play. Since I renamed the file it seems to load and work so far.
