bollerboller, read my posts where "THE MAN" the monk gives me advise as what to try. I did exactly as he said and was playing the game in no time. Wish he wouldn't told me that sooner, wasted soooo much time trying to get it to work.

THE MONK.......YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!! Did what you said (#1-#3) and it runs great!!! I even turned off window mode and it runs perfect!!! Haven't turned on opening cinematic yet cause i'm scared to mess up a working thing(lol). Once again, MONK IS THE BEST EVER THANK YOU SO MUCH!! tankdogg26
I think the problem was that after I re-installed it, I hadn't patched it so thats why the minidump file was created. After patching it, the game is back to the same thing, crashing entire pc at the end of the intro movie. Can't figure this out!!
I completely understand what you are going through!!! I have the exact same problem as you, just different OS. If you get a resolution, please tell me
Okay, so now I uninstalled it,restarted, and re-installed. Now I got a "Saved Minidump". When I try to run it again, I get a minimized bar at the bottom that when I click it, it doesn't do anything but dissapear for a second. Driving me crazy..lol.
Yea the game open in a smaller window that didn't take up the entire screen. What could cause that lock up? ALL my other games run great. All of them are newer games and run on higher settings of graphics. I beat all of the minimum req for SoaSE and match or beat most of the recommended req. Thanks for taking the time to help me...its much appreciated. CAN'T wait to play it!!
Did the same thing, crashed my whole pc once it got to that same point. There was no error message.
Ok I changed it.. go ahead and start the game?
I have ati radeon x1650 pro. I have the latest 8.6 catalyst driver. I did run driver genius pro edition and it did find 3 out of date drivers.Told me all other are up to date. Realtek was two of them that were out of date. I have downloaded and updated thos two and driver pro says they are now updated.. The third one says that it is the Ati SMBus driver. Have looked EVERYWHERE online and can't find the latest SMBus driver. Even on ATI/AMD website. Driver genius pro said it is the 8.6 as of 6/20/
Yes I unistalled the demo first. I also have patched the game
Hi, I recently tried the demo and loved it. So, I went out and bought the full game at the store.Installed and everything went great with that, no problems. I start the game and get through the loading scenes and the begining of the game cinematic movie, but once the movie is over, the game crashes my whole computer. Black screen that never goes away until I reboot. I checked the forum for any help and updated my drivers like most said. Still won't play after the main loading m
