i'm having several game crashes when playing jedi academy. the game hangs, starts again, crashes and stuff, just while playing. every other game (sof2, jk2, cod) runs just fine.

i have an athlonXP 2000+, asus radeon 9600xt, win2k sp4. has any1 encountered any similar problems?

thanks, jools

yeah, but P4 any speed > Celeron any speed hugely.

Not really. I use a PIV 1.4ghz and it works great. :)

Same problem here with the SE. But I also had that problem when I had a GeForce TI 200. I'm pretty sure it's my crappy Abit K7-333R board, but if others are having this problem.... then who knows? :confused:

I must not fear . Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear . I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

I recently upgraded to a 9600 XT, and once I formatted and reinstalled Windows didn't have a problem with any games except that my FPS in most parts of JKA has dropped by about 40% (compared to my old GeForce4 MX 440 - 64 MB DDR).

Celeron 1.7 GHZ
512 MB DDR RAM (266 MHz)
ATI Radeon 9600 XT

and PLEASE don't be telling me the Celeron's dragging me down... I know it quite well. Especially when playing Halo and KotOR. :(

Got an Athlon and an ATI, neither one has caused problems. Make sure your DirecX and OpenGL files are up to date. :)

this probably isnt it, just what happened to me. My computer was locking up frequently, and it turned out to be the power supply. I disconnected the fan and it works fine, although i will be getting a new one soon :D

Well, I have the latest drivers. :) And I wouldn't be able to play on servers every day if I didn't own a patched game. ;)

and don't forget to patch your game;)
since the readme says something about crashes with an ATI video card, I think

Just a thought though:)

Heya Jools,

I have the same problems with crashes, only with Jedi Academy as well. I didn't use to have crashes on my old Radeon 7000, but ever since I bought a Radeon 9200, this has been a major problem. I don't have a solution as of yet.

On my peecee it took like three installs before I got an ok stableness with JA so I recommend installing it but see what other guys will tell ya, go to the general forum and hit up orion's peecee help desk he might be able to point you in a better direction.

good luck
