Star Wolves 2 - fixed exe does not work

[top_score]

Game works fine from original, no crashes. So this isnt a really big deal as I can play it from the original, but more of a heads up for you.

Install the game - Full Installation.
Replace the original STARWOLVES2.EXE & STARW2.DLL files with the ones from the File Archive.
Play the Game!

Game crashes randomly anywhere between 5mins and 1hr. From this crash most of the time I cannot recover the system and have to power off/on again. Sometimes task manager works, but most of the time it doesnt.

Ive got plenty of free space on my drive, and defraged.

No problems playing any other games using CD ,or no CD fixes, so pretty certain my PC's ok.

Again, not really much of an issue as I can play it from the original disc.

Sorry, thought I'd posted this in the right place. Posted in the wrong section, my humblest appologies, I cant edit my post or delete it.

I had to windows open and posted in here by accident.

Maybe a Mod can take pity on dumb old me, and move it.

The crashes gets worse as you advance into the game from my experince. Play in a lower res and in a window to avoid rebooting your pc when a crash comes.
