Default System breakdown after 2 hours playing...

Aaah man, this is just stupid...

I was on a patrol and already completed 2 hours of RL playing, I sunk some 50.000 tons (including a battleship) and I just got DCed by a ASW trawler in the Irish sea.
However, my computer decides the last depth-charge was too much, and I'm out of the game...
The biggest problem is that I haven't saved the game for like an hour

Dang! I just wasted 2 hours of my life for no result....

Luckely it was only a 'friendly' boot out of the game, back to the desktop.
But it sucks anyhow!

Sure sucks alright
At least the devs learned something and put an autosave in SH4 so even if you forget the system doesnt

Did you have a low system memory pop up by the sys tray ?

No, I popped in a new 1 gig memory card some days ago, so that shouldn't have been the problem.
I just went *poof* to the desktop...

But hey, at least I learned something (save the game every 10 minutes....)

Sad but true. I've only had a couple ctd like yours.

The rest have been errors. At least a half a dozen different ones.

GWX \ SH-3 is my favorite game bar none.

I'm stuck playing SH4 at MAX settings loaded with mods and haven't had 1 problem.

So I know thank heaven it's not my rig.

Good Luck.
