I'm at a loss, I have yet to see it crash since the 1st patch was released. I use EAX and it works great. Though I do get a bluescreen apon exiting the game some times. Something it does my live! hates. But a press of a spacebar and I'm back in business.

I have an AMD-K6 200 (NOT OVERCLOCKED), 96MB RAM, 5.1 GB Hard Drive, 24x CD-ROM, Creative Labs PC-DVD Encore 5x, ELSA Victory Erazor (nVidia Riva 128 chipset) w/4MB RAM, Sound Blaster Live! and a Linksys Ether16 Lan Card on Windows 98. I first ran the game for about an hour (original version) and then I got a crash. It wasn't even a blue screen crash. All it does is make weird lines at the top (about 2 or 3 rows down) and the music frozen at the last note played. The only way to fix it would be to reboot the computer. I even patched to 3.0 and I get terran.exe errors, sometimes when I try to move my first unit. I have all the latest drivers for my hardware and this is the first game I am having problems with. Please help, I want to play this great game so bad!!
