problems with SH4 crashing on XP - Page 2

Your GeForce 210 graphics card is more than enough to run SHIV. I would venture to say that, if the issue is not one of overheating, you might want to check how many watts your power supply is putting out. Also, 2GB of RAM is a bare minimum. You may just want to consider adding another 1GB or more. I don't think XP can handle more than 4GB.

Hi guys,
I would like to take up the subject,hope it is not a problem.

I have the same problem...after 10 minutes the pc goes in shutdown and never reboot. I need to startup the pc again.
I run sh4 in 1680x1050 (I try low graphics details configuration too)
You suggest a lower resolution?

Now i try to clean fans & c.
The game it's original with 1.4 patch

I have
3 gb of ram
Intel Core 2 E7200 @ 2.53 Ghz
Asus P5Q Pro
Ati HD 4850 (512mb)
Driver Packaging Version 8.791-101026a-107884C-ATI
Catalyst™ Version 10.11
Fresh Win XP with SP2

What the hell happens?
Thanks for your time and sorry my english

EDIT : I removed all the dust from fans and boards (WTF) and follow the SUGGESTED screen resolution (1240) [!!!!] ...the med setting seems to work very well..i try the first mission in the submarine school...i shoot down everything I saw..about 20 min..all ok.
No graphic glitches...nothing.
I do not like turn all the graphics options...everything seems so unreal.
Now try with some mod...........Sperèm!!
I await clarification, however, if deemed appropriate.

RE-EDIT : I noticed that poor installation of sh4 (and I believe the mods) may also affect the proper screen resolution. Now works perfectly in 1680.

Bless!
