I've had this problem for a long time and with other games, but I'm hoping someone here might be able to help.
Many of my favorite games seem to totally lock up my computer at irregular intervals. They all do it the same - it could happen after 5 minutes or 2 hours, it could happen during any type of sequence, it totally freezes everything requiring a hard reboot. BGII, AoE(K), Starcraft, they all do it.
I've learned to save every minute or so, but it gets really annoying.
My hardware is:
Athlon 600 (K7 Pro MB)
Voodoo3 AGP
SB PCI
128Meg RAM
I've tried defragging, upgrading drivers, and reformatting (repartioning) HD. Nothing helps, in fact, upgrading Voodoo drivers made things worse so I went back to older one.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to hear them. I've thought of getting new graphics card but can't afford it at the moment. My computer doesn't have a flash BIOS, so I can't upgrade that easily.
Thank you
