(Touch wood) the probelem seems to have resolved itself. The main thing I did was increase colour depth from "thousands" to "millions". It seems to make no difference whatsoever to the image as displayed but, funnily enough, CM:BB hasn't frozen once since I did it. Coincidence? Who knows but whatever I did seems to have worked. I have noticed a couple of funnies in the scenario editor, but I'll write them up as a separate thread.

Hmmm... I heard that there was a problem with RAVE in classic mode but I'm booting up in 9.2. I've tried removing as many unecessary extensions as possible but that doesn't seem to help much. Perhaps I'll have to go down the separate partition route. I've been avoiding it up to now because I'm not really a technical expert when it comes to Macs (you probably guessed) and I don't want to screw anything up. Is there any reason why a partition should behave differently to my iMac booted up in OS 9?

Nothing else is running at the same time as CM:BB so I wonder what the difference is between my iMac and everybody elses? I have only the default extensions. I had previously installed and subsequently removed the demo (which also froze now and then). Could that be the problem? [ October 14, 2002, 02:54 PM: Message edited by: Matthew Hayes ]

I tried to install the utility mentioned in the troubleshooting section of the manual but all it did was display a message "G3/G4 Cache Profiler didn't load because this is not a G3 or G4 processor." Maybe I did something wrong? I am by no means a Mac expert. CM:BO used to freeze every now and then but not nearly as often as CM:BB (every 15 minutes or so).

I have an absolutely bog-standard flat-screen iMac and CM:BB freezes regularly (on average every 15 minutes). :confused: What's likely to be the culprit? [ October 10, 2002, 02:56 PM: Message edited by: Matthew Hayes ]
