Game Freeze.

from Demigod Forums

I have been playing Demigod for a couple of weeks now. I'm really enjoying the game however I am having alot of issues with the game freezing.

 

At least a couple times a day the game will freeze and my computer will restart. I Have a 1 year old 3k laptop. It should be fine, regardless I have tried updating my drivers and im still having problems.

 

Id love to keep playing this game, but I can't team up with my buddies since there worried ill freeze. So I play scrim all day. Please help. Do I need a new video card? Mayby I dl'd the wrong drivers?

 

Any help would be much appreciated Id like to get cracking on the team side of the game.

A spontaneous reboot often means your computer is tossing a Blue Screen of Death but is set to not display it. BSODs are generally caused by hardware or driver problems, and the error message it shows can help pin down exactly what the issue is.

To have your computer display BSODs instead of rebooting immediately, go to Control Panel->System Properties->Advanced Tab->Startup and Recovery Settings and uncheck 'automatically restart'.

The next time it crashes, you may get a BSOD similar to the one below (not all highlighted parts may be present):


Write down the information in the highlighted areas before turning your computer off. The information there can then be researched online to see if others have experienced similar problems, and what the cause was. You may also get a 'windows has recovered from a serious error' message when you turn your computer back on--if you do this, you should agree to send the report to microsoft. You'll then be forwarded to information about that error on Microsoft's knowledgebase, if they have any.

Were would I go online to research that?

 

Also, im having trouble confirming which drivers to actually download. I gave it my best guess mind you, but I'd be lieing if I was positive I got the right one.

 

As much as I can play games well, im absolutely terrible at computer maintanence and your help is much appreciated. You have to treat me like I'm 5.

Oh and most of the time it does not automatically restart. The game just freezes and so does my computer and I have to turn my computer off then on again, don't know if that matters.

I have meticulously double and triple checked and I am confident that all my sound and graphics drivers are up to date. Were do I go from here?

If it's not actually rebooting itself after it hangs, then please contact [email protected].
