One person over at MTS2 had the same problem, but a ton of other people seem to have no problems running the game with SP1. So does anyone have any idea why this is causing my game to crash? Ideally I'd like to keep Service Pack 1, as it's supposed to actually make Vista somewhat more operational. I'm running FreeTime (no patches) + a NOCD crack. All Eps and Sps (except Ikea) installed.
I'm a lucky duck who hasn't had this problem. I believe the computer came with Vista + SP1, I wonder if this makes a difference? *scratches head*
What I mean by that is I installed the game after SP1 was installed. I have no idea if this would affect it but perhaps a good old fashioned uninstall/reinstall is called for?
