ver 2.2.1: game freezes then system reboots
« on: September 24, 2008, 08:21:17 pm »
System:
Intel Pentium 4, 2.4Ghz
1024Mb RAM
SAPPHIRE HD3650 AGP with Sapphire driver corresponding to ATi Catalyst 8.8
Windows XP SP 2

Game frezzes for a few seconds after about 1 or 2 minutes of play, then the system reboots. This may occur anywhere: on geospace, equipment screen, research lab ascreen and so on.
If you are intersted, I may attach the whole dxdiag.

Try changing the process priority to Normal. Default for UFO:AI is High Priority. I got random freezes during missions. Stopped getting those ever since I changed the priority to Normal. You can either change the priority in Task Manager after launching and minimizing the game OR finding and editing the config file which is buried in Application Data. There's a line sys_priority = 1 or something like that. Change it to 0 and it will always start with Normal priority.
