Does it always crash at the very same point? As in very same instance, and position in the air etc. If so it could be a problem with the game.

ALSO...

Did you uninstall the old Nvidia drivers for your old card first before installing the new card, as this can cause problems also.

Uninstall your current drivers for your GPU, restart, and reinstall latest drivers to make sure its all fresh. Hopefully that may help.

yes to all.....and it freezes between dive from ship to where the parachute doesnt open and you hit the water....

Does this happen with both the Retail v1.0 EXE and also when the v1.1 patch has been applied?

Joe Forster/STA 18-02-2008 06:39
Probably, yes: the original posts says "[...] i have checked [...] with and without the patch [...]".

BarryB 18-02-2008 14:40
...and both cracks?

...it's crahsing on it's own merit without cracks...with and without the patch (and using the cracks does not help)

Sorry i have been busy --> but it has got to be the nvidia drivers - later i will try both 169.28 beta and/or 163.75 previous and see if this helps....and post results later....

CHRISRHODE2004 18-02-2008 22:15
lol....!! it is the 169.21 drivers....i installed the previous 163.75 drivers and now everything works fine - hopefully nvidia works out the kinks on their new beta drivers for 169.28

DABhand 19-02-2008 02:10
Well beta drivers are well beta.

Before you go LOL!!! as if your well knowledgeable.

Perhaps you should read what you said in your previous statement, and then read what I said.

At no time did I say 169.21 or 163.75 were beta. I am commenting on the fact that you think beta drivers instantly turn into next set drivers, which isnt true. Yes they are run on various machines by end-users. But any kinks they may find may not find themselves fixed into several WHQL releases later.

What i said in my previous statement was that the 169.21 drivers (which are not beta) were causing the problems with my video card (8800 GTX) - i wasn't trying to attack you so sorry if i pissed you off it wasn't my intention....:(

...as far as being knowledgable (why are you attacking me i wasn't attacking you) - but if you must know i have 2 degrees in computer programming and computer engineering, a networking certification, and my A+ certification - and currently i am a network tech for a school district. How about you...??

Joe Forster/STA 19-02-2008 12:08
Gentlemen, please...

CHRISRHODE2004 19-02-2008 12:16
either way - i solved my problem...for some reason the 169.21 WHQL drivers are causing problems between the 768 MB 8800 GTX video card and Crysis...and when i uninstalled said drivers and installed the 163.75 WHQL drivers...now crysis is running great again....:)

thank you to everyone who provided input on this topic....

starting a pissing contest over the internet is stupid, and playing that game usually results in someone coming along with even more qualifications and shutting you up... How about you..?

nice to hear that you got crysis working though, but you could have done without the drama..
