Hi,

I have been having a problem for sometime with C&C, and some other games,
crashing.

On C&C it will crash at no specific time, on both disks, and I get lots of
addresses which look like memory addresses followed by "crash
unrelocated....."

I have tried... Updating drivers, directx, adjusting graphics acceleration
settings, I have done a full scandisk to check for errors, I have ran the
game in MSdos, games mode etc. etc. - still the same.

I am running Win 98, 128Mb ram, Pentium 333mhz.

Sometimes I can play for level after level with no problems, on other
occasions it crashes half way through the level, or, more commonly, after a
level is completed when the game is giving me the casualties, buildings
destroyed info etc.

I've also got the original version of worms which crashes in a similar
manner.

Another game which crashes is FIFA premier manager 99, which just exits to
windows with no error message


Thankyou for taking the time in reading this, and I would be extremely
grateful for any suggestions.

Gaz
