IL-2:Cliffs of Dover

I don't own the game myself, but this could be a gfx card driver problem.
Besides the obvious, installing the newest driver, you can also try to roll back one ore more driver generations; you can find old stuff at http://www.oldversion.com/

Another possibility could be a faulty RAM. I had this problem that I sometimes had a ctd with an announcement that the driver was restored. I found out that it was my computer's memory. The dealer who sold the RAM bars states he had a return rate of 40% of those certain bars.

So you should also let your comp run memtest overnight.

hmm ill check that out.

Video card is an ATI AMD 760G i'm somehwat clueless about video cards, just run a DirextX diagnostic in windows.

AFAIK, ATI 760G is a chipset with integrated ATI 3000 graphics.

Which, in other words means: You're not going to be playing IL2:CloD with that I'm afraid.

It's not exactly a GPU mean't for gaming.

Dowly has it, CloD is a massive GPU & CPU hog and is still horribly unoptimised. IL2:1946 would be a better bet for a card like that.

I figured that, so what card would you suggest?

seaniam81 · 01-05-12, 04:16 PM

I would suggest a Nvidia 550 Ti. It's a great mid-range card, and it's cheap. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...565&CatId=3669 this is the card I'm using.

Arclight · 01-05-12, 08:02 PM

No offense, but 550 is low-end, not mid-range. Once you go below that you get to the eh... "cheap" cards.

Whats a card that is worth the investment? That will play COD and pretty much any other current game.

No offense taken. But the 550Ti is marketed as a mid-range card.
