Spontaneous crashes to DeskTop

from Demigod Forums

 

As topics says sudden crashes to desktop like 10-30 minutes into match w/o any (following) error/crash message... I've seen many topics with similiar problem, but unfortunately without any response at all. I really hope someone can find a conclusion to this broblem very soon. The game itself is running pretty smooth on highest possible details. Unfortunatelly only thing I can include is some info about my OS and drivers as there is no error message as I have mentioned above...

Looking forward to some creative responce or perhaps help.

I receive the same problem but I do receive and error message. I either get an Unhandled Exception or a Visual Basic C+++ error.

Were any of you alt-tabbing while in fullscreen mode?

If not, this is a new breed of crash.

Nope - I've played maybe 20 games and every single one crashs at a moment or other

This is a new breed of crash because I never had this problem before upgrading to .93 version.

I am almost 100% sure there are memory leaks causing the game to crash for people with specific congfigurations.

Anyone here using a x64 bit OS with more than 4gigs of ram?

I did not have much time to test it out today, but had 6 whole games w/o crashes in row today after "just" changing resolution from 1280x1024 (60hz) to 1280x1024 (75hz), maybe I was just damn lucky or it was fix'd as easy as that and btw. I'm tabbing like madman in games and it has never occured right after the alt+tab or in any reasonable time after tabbing.

Maybe iam just lucky but i fixed it with lowerest resolution which can be. But its not cool, i must play game with nosound becouse performance problems thruth sound and on lower resolution becouse crashing. I should buy diablo 2 no demigods.....
