  1. Does anyone have CM running on a laptop. I have a Dell Inspiron 5000 p3/600...with a funky ATI rage mobility card 8megs. Can't get the game to run...about 30 secs into the first turn..total system lock. I've updated the video and sound drivers and changed the resolution down to 640x480...(quite horrible to look at I might add)...and still no go. Anyone? Steve
  2. Some expert help would be greatly appreciated. Lt. Wilkens has cleverly set up what looks to be a very good ambush. All platoons are Vet,rested, and In-Command. Squad A-1 and A-2 are well hidden in the woods with good site of the road...and set to hide! A-0 and A-3 are across the road in a small French farm house again with good vision and set to hide! An ambush symbol is set in the middle of the road approx 35M from each hidden unit. Wow!, Intel was acutally correct on this one and here comes that German mech column! Heading up the column is a scout car followed by 2 canvas infantry truck and...the real prize...2 Tigers!! Boy, I really want those tigers!! Come on boyz...let the infantry go by and pop those tigers with perfect flanking shots. NO!!!! Don't open up on the trucks...you stupid **** I ordered you to HOLD YOUR FIRE!! We're found out....withdraw NOW!! How do I get these grunts to hold their fire to hit the targets I want? Your help will keep me from shooting them myself!!! BTW, I really like the way TacOps lets me send that Javelin team down the road with a good field of fire...give them a small 30M diameter aiming area...and then order them to shoot at NOTHING but those pesky T-72's. Is this possible in CM?? I wish for a drop down menu selection to choose targets during an ambush. Thanks for listening...I really don't want to shoot these guys...well maybe just a few of them with itchy trigger fingers!! Steve
  3. Schrullenhaft: Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I am running CM at 1280x960. I like this resolution...yet this may be the root of my problem. Even with a P3/800 and GForce 2..this resolution may be too much. Thanks for the updated mouse driver info. Didn't seem to work though!! But thanks. I am using the Detonator 5.33 drivers. Too many complaints concerning the 6.18 for me!! Thanks, Steve
  4. Hi: First off, I really LOVE this game. My only issue is the serious mouse pausing when in the game. I have tried both PS2 and USB MS Intellipoint mouse's and they both work poorly in the game. It's not that it is unplayable but there is a definate "lag" sometime when you attempt to move the mouse. All my system files and drivers are upto date. I'm running a P3/800 with GeForce 2 board and 256 Megs. It's a pretty vanilla system...all other games I.E. F4, Links99, TacOps, SteelBeasts Demo,BCT, TOAW2...they all work great! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'm running version 1.03. Thanks, Steve
