I think its something to do with my graphic card memory i think DA is too much to handle with only 128 meg version.

Ive played the new beta update for Dark Avatar and i still get the same problems, as before just to let you no. I basically given up on Dark Avatar and im playing Dread Lords with no problems at all, until i get a new computer.
I got the same error message and ive unistalled everything however ive not had time to reinstall dl and da so try that.
Hoping this update solves my lag and graphic problems. Looking forward to it. Saving up for a new computer anyway.
Allways the case when an NEW OS is realised wait a while till new drivers and updates are realised before changing system.
Ok Cari my system crashed again "not a surprise" I have a exception log using Smartexception "which you told me" and ive e-mailed it to you. What happened this time is after a few minutes playing Dark Avator the graphics messed up then my system just crashed back to desktop an mircosoft error report came up again i quit out of that and found the log file in smartexception and emailed the ZIP file to you. Hope this helps.
Ok will do, will get back to you when it happens. Im abit busy laterly with work and kids so it might be a few days until i can get one, but i will do one when i can NP.

Ok ive been trying for days to get a error report and i finally got 1 i only manages to get 1 screenshot before it dispeared hope this helps. Like i said Dread lords works fine been playing it for ages as for Dark Avator theres something seriously wrong somewhere. I you need any more info please tell me. Oh by the way i could not get a blue screen of death just these microsoft error reports. http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/3227/civ4ju5.png
Might have to give me a few days until i can get my system to crash again like. I played dark avator last night with messed up graphics for about 30 minutes "just plain selecting options and doing random things" I was hoping my system would crash and it did not in the end i gave up as it was late. I will try again soon.
The thing is and this puzzles me i dont get any problems with Dread Lords nothing at all not even any lag and im using gigantic map size max opponents 4x antialiasing, max stars and planets and it runs fine. Come to Dark Avator and World War 3 starts lol.
Ok ive done that i will play dark avator and hope it crashes again.
I do get a blue screen sometimes when booting my system but it goes and everything is fine.
Ok its still doing it ive change down the size of the map, my opponents, ive got rid of a number of things like the star background and it still gets the graphics corrupted although which was different from before it took alot longer before the graphics messed up this time. I will e-mail my debug file my screenshots however i dont have the message to do with the nvidia error message it did not come up this time my computer automically reset itself instead and rebooted.
Lets me c if using a smaller map and less textures on screen solves this problem first if not i will email that stuff you want. not a problem
I will try turning things down and using a smaller map like you said and c if thats happens maybe your right with the texture memory. however ive got to pick my daughter up from school and i dont have time at the moment i will try this out later and get back to you on this matter.
Saying that ive reinstalled my graphic drivers and the ones im using are the lastest nvidia ones???
No virtual memory message however a few times i get a message on my desktop when DA crashes that my nvidia display driver has changed resolution and i have to reboot to get my resolution back.
Could there just be a bug in either the graphic card drivers or something in DA which is making theses corrupted graphics.
Ok ive just tried that and after a few turns it still gets corrupted graphics. I going to try a smaller map with less planets etc etc and c if that helps maybe my system cant cope with the mass data which i am using by playing with gigantic size map and max stars, planets etc etc and thats why its crashing. i will get back to you on that in the meantime if it still gets messed up is there anything else you can give me to try and solve this matter.
lol your saying there is something wrong with my system. well it works fine apart from playing dark avator maybe its a bug in the nvidia graphic drivers however at the moment im using the lastest nvidia drivers for my geforce 4 ti 4600 card "version 93.71". Ive tried scanning for any viruses ive disabled North Antivirus and Zonealrm Pro for playing DA. Ive even disableds certain background programs to free up resources. Could it be a certain problem for example Tweak XP Pro w
ok heres another image. Now ive reinstalled my graphic drivers nvidia version 93.71 to just make sure and it still messes up. you can clearly see that certain things on screen are all distorted and messed up. Hope this helps. [URL=http://imageshack.us] [/URL]
