Ive spent ages on different drivers and nothing worked, it just crashes on the scrolling words..... IRQ NOT EQUAL TO OR LESS THAN (BSOD)

 

Anyway, install latest 5.2 drivers (Thats what i eventually went back to after finding fix)

 

FIX HERE --->:Simply read the intro in the manual(because we will skip it in a sec), and press ESC to skip that section, you dont miss anything but the scrolling text, and then it goes straight into prologue

 

SINCE THEN I HAVENT HAD ANY PROBLEMS!!!!!!!

 

Hope this helps and do the poll if it does!!!!!

explain again, i dont get it, press esc after watching the scrolling star wars text?

[dlux1000]

NO, I know some people are having a crash during or after the "Long long ago..... blah blah"

 

if you simply skip it "ESC" i havent had a crash since!!!

You can disable movies altogather in the configuration.

But it still doesn't work for me.

Good try man.. but it just didn't work for me. It just skipped past the long intro screen and delivered the same black screen of death. Sigh.. ****in' Obsidian better be releasing a patch soon.

4.2 works for me. ATI fix one thing and then break it in the next driver. So 4.2 for 1 and 2
