Vista Service Pack 1 + FreeTime = Crash

<< < (2/2)

Emma:
I haven't had a problem with the Vista sp1 but I think it was because I never use windows automatic updates. I am picky about what gets updated on this computer. I downloaded and installed manually.

purplebunny:
Actually, I've been getting this occasionally (not often) since installing SP1, too. I just thought my computer was overheating (laptop + insanely hot apartment... not even an external fan can cool it enough sometimes).

Maybe a driver issue, related to SP1?

loripanori:
I tried a few random things to try to see if they would help...  I tried installing the first free time patch, which didn't work...  then I uninstalled and reinstalled freetime, but that didn't work...  And I tried updating my video drivers, but that made no difference either...  All of my other drivers/BIOS/etc seem to be up to date, so I dunno what the problem is.  With SP1 installed I can't even get to the neighborhood selection screen, everytime I try to load the game it crashes at the scrolling text.
 
Stoopid Vista.

So anyway, I kinda gave up and used system restore to restore to before the SP1 update.  Gah.  But now my game works, and that's what's most important, right?
