Metal-Eater-GR: I can haz titanium paancakez?; +490|6750

Well hai all,I just bought this kickass game for pc,installed it,and when I tried to run it for the first time a window came up saying:You ll need to download the latest drivers in order to run this game properly from here(takes me to the nvidia site,in the download drivers section)

Well i enter my Graphics card info (all correctly),download,install the driver,and then restart the pc.Even with the latest drivers,GOW will crash after a while.Any ideas ppl?

pc specs

core duo 6300 @ 1.3ghz (me thinks)
2 GB ram
Asus EN8600GTS
Windows Vista 32-bit

Merci in advance.

Blame Microshit. GoW is the most unstable game out right now, 5% of people who have the game have actually completed it. The rest cant run it past a certain point.

Well the first patch fixed absolutely nothing so you might be screwed. On the game forums there was some guy who had a fix for the game, it might work for you, it didnt for me.

Destroy Microsoft Game studios?

Nature is a powerful force. Those who seek to subdue nature, never do so permanently.

LOL my p4 7800gtx setup ran it no probs with most stuff on high, game clocked...shame then that the game is OVERRATED imo

If you can't get it to work I'd return it and get something else tbh.

Running any background applications? Xfire? FRAPS? Both? Did you remember to uninstall the old video drivers before installing the new ones?

Try emailing support just for the hell of it. You never know, they might actually make a useful suggestion. It's worth a try.

Indeed,tried everything...

It may sound stupid but...whats the email of Microsoft game studios??? :p

@ swinub,was running xfire,and to be honest i got a couple of xfire exceptions...although i closed it,the game kept crashing.And yes,I unistalled the old drivers.
