Thought I'd repost this in the tech. section before returning the game to the store, as I'd really like it to work!
I bought Worms 4 yesterday, it installed and ran just fine. Trouble is, now and then it randomly freezes and even a ctrl-alt-del won't unstick it, I have to reset my PC. This usually occurs at least once per half hour of play.
My PC is way over the required specs, has all the latest drivers for every component, and has no stability issues in any other games. Dawn of War, World of Borecraft etc. all run just fine.
I've got the Worms4 patch installed already.
System specs:
AMD AthlonXP 3000+
1 Gig RAM
Geforce FX5600
Windows XP - fully updated
Plenty of HD / Cache space (over 40gig free)
Latest supported directX etc.
Ideas, anyone?
edit: It just happened again, and when I reloaded... all of my save data had been erased. Teams, progress, everything. Aaaaargh!
