Hi i have a problem with wing commander prophecy. In certain missions
that i play i hear a "click", the screen goes black for a second and
then i'm back to the desktop. Is anyone familiar with this problem and
how i have to solve this? I'm running the game on a p3 450mhz, 64 mb,
win98, directx 6.1. I really don't now what to do, so i'm looking for
your help.

Thanks

What graphic card do you have?
Is there any error message?

Sometimes I look outside my window and think,
"Those people look like ants from here."
But then I realize I live on the first floor,
and I really need to call the exterminator.

I have a Diamond Stealth S3 540. There is no error message, it just
suddenly happens. Is it maybe a memory problem?

I really dunno. Is WCP the only game you experience this?

In any case, try the Tech Support Forum at
http://www.crius.net/zone/
There are far more people there.

The following is a new Windows message that is under consideration for 
the planned Windows Longhorn:
