I had this trouble a couple of years ago and I found that older drivers ran the game better with less trouble.
AFAIK 169.21 are the latest,or thereabouts,available,try going back to 81.95 and see how things go as those drivers came out when your graphics card did and may be optimised for it as 169.21 are for the 8800 series.

I get this problem at random,sometimes the game file gets truncated or corrupted in sending.Zipping sorts the problem 100%.

If you have a relatively modern pc with vista then I would not expect BO,BB,or AK to tax the cpu sufficiently to cause damage.
Its more likely to be a case of cheap components.
What cpu have you ?

I lie ! Found one,"Belyi Road"

good thinking.i took the trouble to download your hard work and have been playing through some but i never thought to go by date.thanks.

just read my first Glantz,"Zhukov's greatest defeat" which is on Operation Mars the Soviet attempt to pinch out the Rhzev salient.
was wondering if there were any scenarios on this operation.tried search on SD11 and TPG to no avail.

i've had exactly this problem for some months now.it started with white mortars,then sdkfz interiors,HT guns and went on from there.
i asked in technical but no one had any solution.
i've tried reinstalling CMBB including deleting registry entries but that fix is very temporay because i still cant click on any soviet AC or HT and many bmps appear to be missing.
my troubles began shortly after a mass mod/map downloading session.far too many to even begin to point a finger.
having been extremely careful with several pbems i'm right at the point where a HD format is on the cards out of desperation.

it was a battle where i had infantry reinforcements appear on the map in the same place at intervals.the first two were in instant 120mm mortar fire that lasted for one turn.the third reinforcement was larger and they got what i imagine was the remainder of the spotters allocation that lasted a couple of turns.
obviously my opponent had opened the battle in editor and plotted the strike to coincide but i always wondered how it stopped and started without TRP's or LOS.
Who was it that you played in that battle, that is someone worth avoiding and wasting time with </font>

all i can say is that i must of been incredibly fortunate,over the years i have been playing,to never have had a vehicle bog in reverse until now.

not necessary.i used the power of google and read through this page...........

certainly an entertaining book even if it is fiction.

just finished and can recommend "The Forgotten Soldier" by Guy Sajer a mid war Gross Deutchland recruit who somehow survived until the end.not a book to read if you are depressed or have suicidal tendencies though.

i cant say too much on the vehicles in the trees as my opponent will be reading this but suffice to say that i'm fairly certain that he does'nt know exactly whats there and reversing is by far the safest option in this circumstance.
the 251/2 had a platoon HQ spotting but the position was flanked and became untenable.it was backing into relative safety when it bogged.and the law of sod prevailed as the 251/2 is out of command range and cant see anything either lol.

i know that this topic has been well and truly thrashed out on many occasions and indeed i have just spend some time searching on the subject but i cannot find the answer i seek.
for many years i have been under the impression that vehicles in reverse dont bog regardless of ground conditions/psi etc.i put it down to a glitch in the game but today,in a pbem where i really dont need any more to go against me,i had a 251/2 bog then almost immediately become immobile while reversing down a damp grassy slope.
now if this no bog in reverse thing is now a myth it will change how i do some things.for example in another pbem i have several vehicles reversing through scattered trees.i know its going to take them 10+ turns but they are in danger and its the safest way to extract leaving all guns facing the threat.
has anyone experienced this bog in reverse before ?

thought i'd just post this to let the non Brits get an idea of where the Daily Mail stands amongst the other newspapers in GB.
The Times is read by the people who run the country.
The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country.
The Financial Times is read by the people who own the country.
The Express is read by the people who think this country should be run as it used to be run.
The Telegraph is read by the people who think it still is their country.
The Guardian is read by the people who think they should be runing this cuontry.
The Mirror is read by the people who think they are running this country.
The Morning Star is read by the people who think the country ought to be run by another country.
The Independent is read by the people who don't know who runs the country but are sure they're doing it wrong.
The Evening Standard is read by people who are less interested in who's running the country than in getting a seat on the train home.
The Star is read by people who don't care who runs the country as long as they do something scandalous.
The Sun is read by the people who don't care who runs the country as long as she's got big boobs and the semi-naked girl on page three is attractive.)

i would definately recommend another 512 of ram,not so much for CM but you will notice that PF will run smoother.

i just had this exact problem ! i treated myself to a new graphics card,8800GT,and had the pink out problem instantly.reinstalled the graphics drivers and it cured it.
-
could you roll back to an older graphic card driver ?
-
we in the same boat then.i'm leaning towards the E2180,gigabyte GA_P35_DS3P mobo and geil PC2-6400C4 ram.i can get that for £170 and it would represent a fair "bang for buck" upgrade.
-
i've got a 3700 san diego and i too have been thinking of an upgrade.as i see things the only benefit from buying a 4200 toledo x2 would be if you multi task.
i've also lookied into opterons,4800+ and the FX but for the price i can get an E2180 bundle which will overclock beyond a 4800 at stock.
its a dilemna made worse by the huge price disparity between the S939 upgrade options.

i'm on nvidia 81.95 because i cant always play old games on newer versions.

managed to solve my problem.i had a bit of a reccie through the registry and found some entries under CDV relating to CMBB.uninstalled game then deleted these entries.reinstalled and things are ok so far.not added any mods yet but at least the game now plays normally.

Is this the one you're referring to?Originally posted by bitchen frizzy:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by sudowudo:

About Soviet supply
in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Posted
I've often wondered about this too.Reading Evgeni Bessanovs book Tank Rider gives some insight as to supply being almost non existant.He makes reference during the fighting for Kamenets Podolsk that ammunition actually ran out for PPSH and his men had to use German weapons.Also they lived on flour and water for an extended period.This was at a time when his battalion was down to 30 men with no heavy weapons.Perhaps this unit was so reduced as to be written off therefore intentionally not supplied ?
Bessanov also writes that food was'nt too much a problem in the Eastern Ukraine,where they were treated as liberators but once they advanced further west resentment towards Moscow,by the local population,meant that threats had to be used in order to gain food.
