Hello:
Combat Mission has certainly raised the proverbial Gold Standard for WW II combat at the tactical level. In terms of both its modelled accuracy and its 3D presentation, it is certainly the heir in-spirit to the Advanced Squad Leader series it was originally meant for.
In spite of this, I have a consistent problem to report: a consistent freeze after exiting the program. My mouse will actually still travel, but selecting with left click or the right click doesn't work. Essentially, the only way to get out of this is to turn the machine off as even CNTRL-ALT-DEL won't allow me to shut down.
Please note:
1] No background programs running (was checked for this)
2] 600x800 res at 85hz refresh rate (default selected by CM)
3] System is a Gateway Destination (27" monitor!) 450mHz Pentium III with Voodoo2 drivers updated through the latest patch (1/27/00)... 20 GB hard drive of wich 9GB remain free... computer is 99% unfragmented. Creative SoundBlaster card updated drivers.
4] Have the CM v1.01 patch.
5] Windows 98, updated
6] The mouse is infrared Gateway for the Destination system... and updated.
You know, I really don't think a game this well-done should have so many lockup/freezes.
What to do??
Thanks in advance.
