<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Big Time Software: Tom, What is telling you the card is all full up? CM itself takes up very little of the card's VRAM, with the scenario specific stuff taking up a variable amount. I can't think of any scenario that exceeded 16MB since that is all my wittle card can hold too. I suspect that whatever is telling you the card is full is either incorrect or telling you something slightly different. Perhaps your drivers need to be updated? Steve<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Steve, Could be, although I seem to have more recent drivers than Chris. The ATI Displays program is what is showing me that it is using the 16 MB. Perhaps I am reading it wrong. In the meantime, I'll look into new drivers. Thanks Tom

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by chrisl: Sounds a little different from the bug I observed--mine never dies on the calculations, only when loading the 3D graphics. Can you change the speed on your graphics card? I think there were some people with problems on their PCs when they ran the graphics cards at top speed.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Chris, I haven't figured out if I can change the speed, yet. Found out that just running the game and the desktop, I was using all the 16 MB of ram for the card. I was surprised at that. Nothing further in the way of progress, yet. Thanks for the suggestions from you and the others. Tom

Chris, I'm having the same sort of trouble. My Mac is a G3/300; 128 Ram; ATI Rage Orion with 16 MB; my screen is set at 640 x 480 at 120 mhz.I have yet to check the various drivers and accelerators that you listed. I have had no trouble with the smoke or anything. Many occasions, I set my various tank and infantry movements and press GO. BLIP, I'm at the desktop. Whatever movements I've programmed in are saved. However, I'm getting frustrated with having to re-start so often. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Other than that,the game is terrific. Thanks, Tom
