Game Rebooting My System

[bigtrouble77]

Every time I go into the 'Fighter' Area the system locks up for a second and reboots. One time it gave me and ATI Video driver error and Disabled DirectX- Fortunately the system didn't reboot. Every other time I either get a Blue Screen of Death or a reboot.

My concern is that this might be a database issue. Are any database repair utilities available? Any help is appreciated.

I'm gonna do a reinstall and try to copy my database and fight history over later on today.

LOL the system looks pretty up-to-date

I guess it's nevertheless a problem with your video card driver...

To check out whether it's a database problem please read the FAQ, there is an article about TB databases.

After downloading the new install file and running the non-directX version the issues went away. I also noticed the auto sims go faster now.

So I guess I'm just bringing to your attention that the directX version has some issues. Is there any advantage in running that mode anyway? The Catylist 3.9 drivers suck really bad so the problem may not be entirely your fault.

Without D3D you don't have transparency, which also means that you don't have background pictures, because otherwise the writing wouldn't be readable.

Auto-sims go faster now? Interesting, I have to look at it. There seems to be a possibility for me to make the program faster. Must be a pretty big issue, if you feel a difference in speed on THAT hardware.
