Hi, I recently decided to start playing Renegade on a 'nicer' desktop instead of my old laptop, but now the game crashes and freezes my computer within one minute of play time. The music continues after the screen locks up and after the keyboard stops working, but is very choppy.
-This has happened every time I run Renegade on my current machine.
-It seems to happen regardless of being in multiplayer or campaign.
-Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz
-2.0 GB RAM
-NVidia Geforce 6200
-WinXP Pro SP3
-I have never used Renguard, I was just playing the campaign for fun
At first, I tried downloading the 1.037 patch, which changed nothing, then I tried the "scripts344" patch on this website (again, nothing), then I tried updating my Nvidia driver to 6.14.11.7519, the most current (Still nothing).
I would really appreciate any help at all, thanks!
-Yosh

I think so, they come on (I can hear them) and on other games the graphic card's fan comes on after an hour or so of play time. Is there a way to check for sure (other than play a game I know works for an hour)?
edit: also, this crash happens within 3-5 minutes of turning on the computer from being turned off overnight (about 8 hours). Can it overheat that fast?

Google Speed Fan. I If anything hits 80*c+ while you are playing the game, then heat is your problem.
Some bios allow you to change the fan settings to a single (fast but noisy) speed

to me it sounds like a driver problem... try using driver sweeper to remove all of you video drivers then reinstall them again, using the latest ones. if nothing else you would put that guess to rest. after all you dont seem to find the solution as of right now.
