N2003 problem

Not seen this one posted yet, just installed the game yesterday, and messed around a bit, but every time I exit the game, my system locks up on the credit screen. I have to physically power it down. Anyone else had this happen? Locked up once in the options screen too. Thanks in advance. Bill

I will try that......I assume that is an options menu choice? Never seen that option.

You have to add a command to the shortcut. right clik on the shortcut and then choose properties. in the box with the .exe file you have to add something like this... ...2003.exe -noannims or -noannimations. I'm not 100% sure of the exact wording. Hopefully somebody else will fill in the details. dave henrie

It actually is a menu command, at least there is one that lets you check a box that says no intro and exit credits, I checked it and then it locked up as I hit the exit button. And it is locked up solid. Annoying..... "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I had simular problems with NR2002. Swapping sound cards "cured" it. My system had the evil pairing of a Geforce video card and a Creative sound card. It could have been either one, but I really disliked the Live card so I ditched it. MadDAWG

Mine will crash at the credit screen only if I have the sound card hardware acceleration turned all the way off.. did you play with any hardware acceleration settings on your comp?

I will check that, thanks. Bill "Mike" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Assuming you are talking about the settings in Direct X, it is all the way on. B "FerretBill" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3oMea.58614$[email hidden]...
