Grief, woe, despair and hideous black screens

Hmmm. I have a friend looking to build a new PC. Maybe I'll talk to him about buying my Nvidia and get myself a Radeon to see how it does.

The funny thing is that the blue/black screen crash/freeze has been happening more since this conversation popped up here. It's like the game *knows*.

MrsH:
Will try the PSU thing.  Otherwise it's looking to me as if EA have cunningly provided us with a game which is unplayable.  Well done them.

I'm inclined to call nVidia the culprit since the game does run very well with current ATI products.

CatGirl:
I am running on a laptop with an ATI card. It ran fine for almost a year, then started intermittently slowing down--badly. After a trip to a hot climate, during which I couldn't play at all, the slowdown was so bad, I realized it was a temperature problem. (Duh! It took over six months for me to figure out it was my graphics card causing the problem.) I actually DO deep-freeze it -- when I play TS2, I set it on top of a brick of "blue ice." It works -- no slowdowns while frozen.

I may eventually get a desktop that can handle TS2, but I like to play with my feet up.

V:
Now I would have thought dry ice was a bad thing to put in and around your computer. How does this not damage wires and transistors and things?
