I know there are lots of crash threads, but none seem to go anywhere and are different problems.
Basically, only when playing, I crash at a random time. It freezes for about 2 seconds, then I'm back at my desktop with 3 windows error boxes saying Send or Don't Send one after the other.
They don't leave any info on the cause what so ever.
I can instantly reload UT3 and it's fine until the next crash.
It crashes anywhere between 1 minute and 30 minutes.
Occasionally I can make it through a whole 20 min game, but rarely.
It never crashes in the menu.
I'm now on a freshly installed XP. All I have on it are the drivers that came with my hardware and UT3, and it still crashes the same.
I tried the latest drivers before formatting and starting again, made no difference.
I crash whether playing offline with bots, or online, on any map.
Hardware:
AMD 4200+ X2 - factory settings
2gb 266mhz ram
gf8800 GTS 320mb - superclocked by factory default
X-fi sound card
Asus A8N-SLi motherboard
I'm not overheating, CPU sits at 30deg, Graphics sits at 55deg.
Can't be hardware fault, that would cause a blue screen.
I've also tried:
AMD dual core patch
disable internal sound card
Ini fixes from this forum all implemented
I run on the lowest possible detail, fps not an issue
It's crashed like this since release, all beta patches, and also in 1.1
I'm getting really frustrated.
Temporary Workaround.. Does UT3 have a pause feature yet? Just we keep losing caps (in CTF) when I crash.
Lots of others are crashing too in the clans we play against, and others never crash at all..
