Whenever the game tries to show a movie, it crashes to the "Blue Screen of Death" or the computer locks up. I have all the latest drivers for my computer, and the only game I'm having problems with right now is Alpha Centauri. I've tried setting "DirectDraw=0" in the .ini file, but the problem persists. Besides it caused some graphics corruption on the main map. I thought it was a CD problem, but since the opening movie plays fine and I've had similiar problems with two different ingame movies, I've pretty much ruled that out. Thanks for your help. In the meantime, is there a way to disable the movies since they're mainly just eye candy anyway? By the way, I have no problems with the opening animation. |
