That's all I can come to think of now...any obvious problem here?

Our systems are more or less similar, shouldnt be because of your rig.. :hmm:

PC specs seem fine although make sure the video and sound drivers are current.

Several users have had corrupted downloads of the patch(es). Rather than reinstalling the same patch you previously downloaded, try re-downloading the patches from scratch and then reinstall using those.

You only need the 2.06 patch, the 2.06.1 patch, then the optional Multiskin update (this last one is optional depending on PC's power and yours should be fine there).

Again please see my comments above about DX9.0C.

Before runnign the game do you turn off all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs? Symantec/Norton and BitDefender in particular have caused long load times and crashes for some users.

One mod I'd HIGHLY recommend is Bader's summer terrain mod.

Guess I have to thank you chaps. It all works fine now, those jerries are sitting ducks up there!

Hi Biggles,

Glad its working OK now.

Can you tell us what appears to have solved the issues in case someone else is having a similar problem(s)?

No idea really. I installed the game again, without starting it, I patched it up with the 2.06 patch, and then the 2.06.1 patch, and now it works. I also downloaded the newest Nvidia drivers, but it appears that I already had them. Could it be just because the patches? Was CTD a very usual problem in the first version?
