Welcome back cypher!! Re CTDs etc etc, only play for about 2 hours in last three weeks for various reasons, including bugs, machine crash, work, etc etc. Although I previously did reinstall on 3 occasions trying to see if that made a difference.

[quote]I can reproduce the bug now by running the game in the AI-only mode, so reproducing it is no longer a problem.[/quote] Thanks Cari. [quote]I want to point out that hurley's techniques do not consistently reproduce the problem.[/quote] Agreed, I can't predict exactly how many turns it will take and I don't have my actions scripted. The behaviour of the other races in the game, planet distribution, anomolies etc also affect this, and I can't control that.

Thanks David but moved on from that Machine. Also the specific bios that dell use seems to sometimes be problematic with upgrades. I appreciate that is a marketing decisions but I didn't need xp anyway. (This is being typed on xp pro laptop machine with 512 mb, 1.3 ghz)

[quote]Interesting. In all other reports I've seen, that bug doesn't manifest until after many hours of play (thus BillKo's remark). IIRC it is a memory management problem. Any chance you have a funky memory chip? Do you have anything unusual running in the background? An unusual memory manager?[/quote] G'day HtL, I have posted more details in the thread titled" Question for Hurley". To respond to your questions though. Memory chip fine, was checked with diagnostics, behaviour not happe
