Crash to desktop (no minidump)

windows vista 32 bit

July 20, 2008 12:43:36 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I just installed Sins on my other computer (works fine on my other vista) and patched it to 1.05. Several hours in, I get  random crash to desktop. No minidump, no anything; just vista popping up to tell me that Sins has stopped working. Any help would be great!

Did you update drivers? Is there anything specific that happens just before it crashes?

My drivers are updated and it crashes randomly; sometimes in combat, sometimes when I'm about to phase jump.

Might be something the AI is doing.

Try the venerable reinstall.

It surprised me too. I have pretty high specs on my computer but for some reason it just was crashing it on highest.
