Hi,

I' m having this terrible problem. Whenever I start a game, it crashes the moment something happens, like a dropship crashing or shooting. It's a vanilla version of CC and I just installed it. It used to work on my old computer, but I bought a P5K se motherboard from Asus and a SATA hard drive. I also have a Geforce 8800 Gts and a Pentium D from intel, but those can't be the problem because they were in my old PC too.

Help me please, I really want to play a game of CC.

Greetings

Did you try reinstalling?
That sounds like somehow the sound effects aren't working.

Reinstalled it, didn't work. It's not the sound because I do get sound effects, and now it crashes when an actor simply walks around.

Do you have the newest drivers? The hardware might be buggy.

Try another game really quick that's about the same CPU caliber.
If it crashes: hardware problem.

One of the parts you bought might be broken. Or maybe a part you didn't mention is involved.

Some computer parts actually refuse to be in the same case as one another.
(those are rare cases though)

Updatet some drivers, but there's nothing that doens't have drivers. Everything else works fine and I can play wow and unzip, wich I think, are some heavy-duty tasks for your CPU.

My WoW is nowhere near the strain on my CPU as CC.
Try something newer and more demanding, like Bioshock or something.

I think it's a hardware problem. Downloaded all new drivers, but Driver Detective sais there are still some outdated drivers, but it won't download them because it's only a trial version. Anyone with a solution?

Edit:

Reinstalled Xp, did it myself now (what you do yourself, you do better). Works now! Ty for helping.
