This game is awsome!, playes great, then boom...locked up during a cutscene(not the video cutscene,a 3D cutscene).

The game acted like it ran out of memory or something but thats like hard to believe with my system,because I tried to alt+tab to get to the task manager when the game locked up,then the game tried to continue and when I tried to alt+tab back in I got a black screen+sound looping...

Now before anyone asks, the game has been fully patched, and ive installed all new drivers,and the recommended hotfix,november DX update aswell..

Specs:
Athlon64 x2 3.0ghz socket AM2
ASUS M2NE motherboard(570 Ultra--non SLI,newest bios update)
6gigs DDR2 800 ram dual channel (9000MB page file/Virtual mem whatever u wanna call it)
8800GTS 320meg graphics card(22" HD Widescreen monitor,HDMI)
Onboard Soundmax HD audio
Pioneer DVD/CD rom/burner multidrive 8x DVD read
Vista Home Premium 64bit
All graphics settings on max 1680x1050(60fps easy)

What version Nvidia drivers are you using? A copy dxdiag would help. Run dxdiag, click the run 64 bit dxdiag, click save all informaton to a text file. Attach the text file to your post.

Well, after posting I spent the whole nite countinuing to try and fix this problem and it seems to be resolved now.

I had dual-core optimiser installed, duh...vista dont need that.

I also had 2 programs that kept asking to connect to the internet(therefore making a popup box causing the game to crash), they wer stuff I didnt really need installled anyway..so deleated them.

I got all the way to chapter 2 now without a single hitch, ill update this later if I get any other issues then ill post the things you requested.

Ok, I played it all the way through and only had 2 crashes,thats not bad, this game kicks butt too, I was looking for more when it ended ;-(.

im not going to bother replaying it because I would just make the same decisions again...lol

(cross fingers for a second one :-) )
