My copy of Colin allways crashed while loading the 5th stage of
Australia. With 1.4, it finally works perfect!

Hmmm, strange. I have the same problem, but after installing the 1.4
patch the problem still exists :-(

I did find this on the Codemaster's web page in the Technical Support
section:

"Problem: I've got a Voodoo2 card with the latest drivers, and my PC
hangs as it tries to load Stage 5 in Australia.

Solution: The problem you are experiencing is mainly due to the
Voodoo2 card and their new drivers. We have found that, with these two
combinations, the game seems to exit after stage 5 in Australia.

The solution to this is to simply reload the game at the stage prior
to the crash, but set it on to the primary card, i.e. Device 0 and
default.
Once this stage has been completed, save the game and reload it but
this time set it on to Device 1 and Default.

Now you can carry on with the game as normal."

I just tried this and it worked (my Device 0 is a Matrox Millennium
G200)!
