Not much to go on in the logs. Is there any common reference point when the crashes happen?

[dotsie]

Not really. Could it be overclock related? Im pushing cpu and card fairly hard.

[DOC]

maybe, but cannot really know for sure without some controlled testing

like, stop overclocking and see if it goes away

then, if it does, ramp it up until it comes back

that would tell us a lot that from which we could draw a conclusion

make notes at each change in the variable (that being the degree of OC you have dialled in)

[OLDZEKE]

Dotsie, how much ram?

If 4 gigs or less, you checkin the low mem option in the game settings?

Yesterday I got dumped to desktop about 6 times.

I have an IM program running all the time in the background, and I switch out of WWIIOL when I hear the message chime. (No other program running.) I keep in touch with an old friend this way, and we chat a bit quite often, so gthe program is always running.

Until yesterday I had never had a problem switching back and forth. But then every time I got a message and switched to the chat program when I tried to switch back, WWIIOL was no longer running.

Once or twice I was able to switch back and forth, but at least 6 times I got dumped. I finally decided not to re-start, and just watched Tropa de Elite, a Brazilian movie about a special-forces-type cop in Rio. Very good movie.

So perhaps the dumping has to do with packet loss due to the IM program using the pipe when WWIIOL wanted it.

Ya know, at first Romsburg, you rubbed me the wrong way and I wasn't a fan. But over the past 12 months, you have really grown on me. You're precise, well spoken and although you are sometimes a little harsh, you are most often correct and in proper context with your responses.

jw:

If you're going to argue with Romz, do your homework before you post. He gets it, and you can't teach common sense, you have to be born with it.

pete, linc & julie:

I can't say [any]thing else [than] that the ban was justified considering that you have an 'impressive' TOS history....

OK I'll try some controlled tests. It may take a while.

[romzburg]

Ok, update for me:

Last night I tried everything again, chat program running, switching back and forth while playing.

No problems at all, didn't get dumped a single time.

So it's not that, or at least it's not exclusively that. It could be that some network issue between here and TX was exacerbated by the chat program's interruptions.

Thanks for the feedback romz.

Dot, let us know. Be happy to fix it if we can find it.
