Crash after parameter set during galaxy creation

March 29, 2006 7:16:39 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Okay, I can start the game, set up my parameters and go all the way through that. As the game shows the initial tip during game initialization and galaxy setup the game causes my entire system to reboot. I am running Windows XP.

The after error recovery message from windows is as follows:

BCCode : 1000008e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : BFA7369F BCP3 : B25BAB0C
BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 2_0 Product : 256_1

The technical part is as follows:

C:\DOCUME~1\PENALT~1.BUS\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERe684.dir00\Mini032906-02.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\PENALT~1.BUS\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERe684.dir00\sysdata.xml

The info from the debug.err file is as follows:

Tried updating the video and audio drivers some time ago. Not doable. But will try again, never hurts to be persistant. Will also download the new patch and will update whether or not these things work.

Enjoy the game.

P.S. Your audio drivers are at this Link...

...and the Beta is not the latest patch, 1.0X is. Try it first. Good luck.
