Crashing after patch

[talon4031]

I downloaded and installed the patch but now the game crashes back to the desktop while loading. I was able to play the game prior to the patch. I have attached the dxdiag file.

Your audio driver is a bit old....2002. You might want to update that in any case.

Your video driver is fairly recent, but they have been recommending the July drivers as more stable than the most recent versions available. I believe that version is 61.77 (http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_61.77.html) for XP users.

Does this crash happen every time? Does it happen at the same point every time? Try using the Launch Analysis function. Right click on the CotN.exe file and select Launch Analysis and post it here. The file it creates is saved in your hard drive root directory folder as Analysis.log.

Yes, the game crashes at the same point every time. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall it but the . The crash occurs after you select the scenario you want to play. I tried to attach the anaylsis log but the file extension is not accepted.

Try increasing your virtual memory. Also, try seeing if a tutorial will start. Instructions on increasing your virtual memory can be found here (http://www.immortalcities.com/cotn/gameinfo/support.php).

Increasing the virtual memory solved the problem. Thanks for your help.
