Bought the game, downloaded and installed.
Ran for a few minutes then crashed. Restarted and played a round of veil up till around the end and then crashed again.
After disabling/ enabling all the different settings and features from inand out of game (radeon( controls), still no luck.
Did a fresh reload(Formatted just for safety ) , as I am really keen to get NS going, Reloaded latest drivers from amd direct.STILL NOTHING!
Core 2 Quad
3GB DDR2 (egh)
Radeon HD 7970 (beast)
Please give me some actual fixes. I have been reading thread after thread for the past 3 days and am so fed up.
Be my hero
Ps. I even redownlaoded the entire game just for incase a validate wouldn't work.

Welcome to NS2, sorry to hear you are experiencing problems but the next time it hangs can you alt tab and run Techsupport.exe located in your NS2 installation folder then upload us the .zip file it creates please.
So we can have at look at your logs.
Thanks.
I don't quite understand? It's crashes randomly. Just swapped Fx cards and still no luck. So not that , also not o/s as I Reload with a 32bit after having 64bit.
Here are the tech files..
Please guys. I need this to work. What other route can I go?
Thanks again
(Also, there's zero reason to run on a 32 bit OS and you could use more RAM in general anyways)
Memtest86 is free and the best at detecting memory issues, but you may find it complicated, so feel free to ask questions after doing some Google searches first.
Edit: try DC's suggestion first because it's easier. Lots of anti virus programs can interfere even if you disable them. Therefore I recommend just for testing purposes to **temporarily** uninstall your anti virus and then see if you still have an issue. (Yes this has made the difference before for multiple users)
Files are not being loaded in/not found.
Amusing you have the files, something must be preventing them loading.
(unless its a bug, I dunno about bugs)
Well i think here we have reason.
Did you run memtest86?
If that comes back good, then download and run Seatools or any other HD diagnostics program. We still need to eliminate the potential for hardware failing.. since that is what the error implies, essentially.
As far as Direct X and such? Thanks again
How many programmers does it take to change a lightbulb? None. It's a hardware problem.
My hardware is between minimum and recommended - as far as cpu and ram, my card is killer. So I don't think the hardware is the factor. As it runs beautifully when it runs and then intermittently it crashes. High fps 60+
Entertaining joke though
He is paging A LOT due to lack of ram. But thats what thats for and his page isnt full.
It would make his loading slower, not gone.
Do you know how to repush rights on windows? Perhaps the rights are messed.
@ZenLibra Do you have administrative rights on the windows account you are using?
I can't imagine why you aren't able to map these items to memory..
If you are an admin on windows try to nuke your install from orbit, just in case. I know its a pain, but sometimes it can help rare issues and at this point it's worth a shot.
IF you are still crashing after nuking your install, then please run that same techsupport.exe with NS2 crashed - even if the window is black and is frozen. I recommend putting a shortcut to the exe on your desktop for easy access. This should create a large zip file with a crash dump folder in it for developers to look through and see what exactly is occurring.
Upload this large zip file someone online and link it here
My profile is admin, freshly reloaded.
The joys.
I reloaded on a different hdd with different ram back on 64bit and able to play the odd game.
But still not as I would like it. So please any other ideas would be gladly welcomed Thanks alot guys
Also you run Windows 7 32-bit who knows if thats what causing issues.
