AMD 2600+, 512mbRAM, 1gb swap.

Game runs fine after initial map load (10 sec or so) and all function seem to be working ok until...

I try to access the world map (or whatever its called). The continent map shows fine until I try to move the floating tool then the game crashes immediately to desktop. Is this a common place for the game to crash?

I do plan on upgrading the RAM to 1gb and moving the swap file to a dedicated partition to improve performance but I was wondering if people had problems with the continent maps.

This was a problem last night, that alot of people were experiencing- but they put up a patch that fixed it (for me at least). Have you played today? Do you have the newest drivers for your videocard?

I should have posted vid card and drivers, sorry. Im running an ASUS GF4 Ti4200 with recent det drivers. I played PS until about 3am PST this morning, has a new patch been released since then? If so, I'll give it a whirl.

I'm glad to hear others were having this prob, I was worried that a reinstall would be necessary, and I really wasn't looking forward to that prospect...

Thanks for the quick reply!

The most recent det drivers are not the most stable for PS, try the 40.72s.

This was fixed on one of the patches. Yey! I have full game functionality...
