Does anyone play Supreme Commander on Vista? If so, do you get crashes when you play multiplayer on LAN?
I installed Vista on my sons new PC and now Supreme Commander crashes after about 45 minutes of play (when the memory usage gets above 90%). I have installed the 3 MS updates rec mentioned but I can't remember if there was any other recommendations in the post. I can't find the post when I do a search :(. rec, could you post a link to the post again please.
Anyway, after installing the updates it lasts for about an hour and a half now before a crash.
I run XP-64, however I'm told Vist suffers from a problem when SupCom hits 2Gb memory usage it crashes. SP1 may fix it. For now an easy fix is to either get some more ram or install XP-32/64 with 3Gb+
Quote from Longtom;343599: you run Supreme Commander on XP64. I have trouble starting it, how did you do? You can either patch the game to resolve issues, or Supreme Commander Forged Alliance seems to fix many issues that the original had.
I would seriously recommend one of the following system setups with a 512Mb video card and the highest dual-core CPU clock you can get: 1. XP-32: 3GB system memory 2. XP-64: 3GB+ system memory 3. Vista-64: 4GB system memory
Really, it's ok. I gave the game to a friend a couple of months after I posted here (2007). I fixed my problem :P The subject is dead now. Please let it RIP!
