C&C 3 - Crashing / Freezing - What can I do?

Asked by jrtilson in Other Strategy Games

Tags: 3, crashing

I've installed C&C 3 on my Windows XP system. I'm well aware of the tons of problems some people have been having, so I've been diligent to update drivers. I've got a relatively decent system, 2GB ram, Intel C2Q Q6600 (OC'd to 3.0ghz). The only bottleneck is my video card, an NVIDIA GeForce 6200. I managed to get through the first few maps in single-player, but I've encountered non-stop crashing and freezing in the GDI-Croatia mission. Sometime the game crashes to the desktop, other times my computer just reboots and upon next boot I get the "System has recovered from a serious error" message.  I'm sure that I'm not overheating as the CPU temp reaches about 50 - 60 degrees at load. I've tried playing with the graphic settings and I've got them at bare minimum... I'm completely stumped, and planning on buying a new video card... is this a problem with the game? Or my system?
