Pls Help Bad Crash Problem

[Stew U-582]

Hi Guys,

Im still having problems with my SH5 install.

Ive done lots of experementing and found the trigger of the crash but
can find no way to fix it. Can anyone please help me , ill explain the
problem.


Every time I encounter an enemy ship on the surface and that ship
fires its main gun I have a complete system crash to the dreaded
blue screen. The game runs fine all the time other than under this
circumstance. There doesnt seem to be any problem with machine
gun fire or air attacks it only occours when the bigger guns try to
fire.

What ive tried so far as a solution.

I got a brand new Hard drive installed win xp pro fully updated.
Ive checked all system drivers and have updated those.
Ive updated direct X.
I tried updating visual C++ to the 2010 version but the game would
not load. so I uninstalled all Vis C++ and only have the version from
the SH5 DVD installed.
I have allso tried running the game on the lowest quality graphic
settings but no change.
Ive tried uninstalling all mods and starting a new carear but I still
have the same problem.
When I first Installed the game the detection tool that came with
SH5 gave me Green ticks in all boxes.

As I said the game runs fine all the rest of the time but its annoying
as if I get caught out on the surface by an escort and it fires its
main guns the game crashes straight away. Obviously I can avoid this
problem by "being a good sub commander" as you should never get
caught in this position. But its anoying to me to know the problem
exists.

Has anyone else experienced any similar problems ?
Is there a mod that may fix this ?

I wellcome any comments as im running out of ideas on how to fix
this. Below are my system specs , im interested in hearing from anyone
that uses a similar system. Or can comfirm they have the radeon HD 5750
video card working with this game.
