Help require, this time MS has gone too far !

KidD01 · Post by **KidD01** » Sun Dec 15, 2002 9:47 pm

I dunno why but seems like games from Microsoft are really unreliable on my PC

I used to be patient when I encounter the probs on Dungeon Siege but now this time it's too far. Even MechWarrior 4 : Mercs got same prob

Here's the situation : The game always crash and boot me out of it. Afterthat whole system is unstable which require restarting.

I've manage to save several error files below is one of them. I'm hoping someone here can help me besides advice that I should contact their support.

Here is the file :

Error during Script Execute

File : Content\MercsShellScripts\buttons.script
Line number : 417
Script code : (null)

Also there's "Stack Overflow error" occuring - the errors happen everytime I hit Nav Gamma or cleared Nav Beta on Mission 1. And after the Stack Overflow error - I can't save the error details message & I also need to reboot the PC since other progs have high crash probability

Here's the situation : The game always crash and boot me out of it. Afterthat whole system is unstable which require restarting.

Noooonoooooo not mechwarrior,
I would rather give up Windows then Mechwarrior (and I'm one of the few windows fans, I run Linux at my PC at school, and i JUST CANT WORK WITH IT.
But now you're problem, I don't understand a thing off those error reports, and I guess you tried patching etc.etc.
Isn't Mechwarrior4 a little windows XP ustable (or was that 3?)
My only advice, keep trying, it's worth it.
