BF1942 Rebooting computer at end of singleplayer maps

Ive updated Battlefield to version 1.6 with the full patch, and now when i play the game the computer reboots itself at the end of the mission. I did not have this problem before i installed this patch, and all my ingame settings are the same as when i installed the game out of the box.

Here are my computer specs:

Windows XP Home Edition (Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 Build 2600)

AMD Athlon XP3000+ running at 2.17Ghz
512MB DDR RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 All-In-Wonder 128Mb (driver version 6.14.10.6404)
80Gb HD

Ive looked at the ATI site to see about updating my driver but they only have a 4.2 patch...and mine is up there in 6.14 so i dont know what to do. Anyone else have the same problem/ideas to resolve the problem im having??

You may have downloaded a corrupted/damaged update. Try downloading from another source and reinstalling.

Have you tried downloading from another site? If not you may want to do that and if that does not work I am out of ideas.

Things have taken a worse turn than expected. Yep, i downladed from another site, installed again and still no hope.

I also tried to completely unisnatll everything to do with BF and reinstall it afresh. When i tried to run it from the out of the box version (which was 1.45) the game STILL crashed at the end of the mission, despite it working when i origionally installed it. However i have installed such hrrible proghrams like Oracle and the JAVA 2 platform, and when i end the processes associated with them in the task manager some of them respawn themselves. Could this be having any affect on my game?

even the greenhouse effect , effects this game .
i suggest however to try the new drivers from ati ..
i am not 100% sure but i think your using rather old drivers .. version 6 is now 7 something even tho it says catalyst 4.1

Well another twist in the tale of woe is that i can play online and do single player instant battles with the 1.6 BF patch, but its singleplayer campaigns that cause the computer to reboot at the end of the mission. Strange but true...

...Ahh well thankyou very much, i was gonna try the 4.2 catalyst drivers but was a bit confused as to if they were new or not. Thanx for the help guys!

well i found this in the event log after my computer rebooted.

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x000000d1 (0x00300016, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0xbfdd975e). Microsoft Windows 2000 [v15.2195]. A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini030804-01.dmp.


any suggestions?

The update to your video card is different than the update of BF 1942. You need to verify that your video card drivers are the version that you think they are and not confuse that with the BF 1942 update which does not include video card updates.

As for the other posters in this thread, best thing to do is start a new thread for your problem and not try to lump your problem with another user who might have the same symptoms but not the same problem. Start a new thread with your system specs, what is happening, and what you have done to try and correct it and let us treat it like a seperate case.

  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
