firesoldier845 Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 Just got my new computer today and wanted to load up LOCK-ON to give it a shot. The game loads fine but as soon as I select a mission the computer crashes and completely reboots all on it's own. Every other game plays completely fine with ZERO problems and I've had ZERO lock ups in WinXP or any other games. But LOCK-ON crashes and reboots everytime I start a mission. Temps are fine, no problems in any other games and I can't figure out for the life of me why LOCK-On won't run. Could it be starforce? I installed LOCKON FC originally on my old computer and completely reformatted for this new one and everything inside is different except for HD and DVD recorder. It used another one of my activations but that was expected and I still have 13 left. For the heck of it, I uninstalled FC and loaded the original LOCK-ON and it crashed and rebooted my computer as well so it's a LOCK-ON problem for sure. THe only thing I noticed was my CD for Lock-on looked a bit abused and I wondered if it installed corrupted somehow? Any suggestions? thanks p.s. i might try and pick up another copy of Lock On original from the store if I can find it anywhere and give it a shot.
ViperVJG73 Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 Do you try to start Lock once with double clicking on the "lockon.bat" file in directory of Lock On. If you are using one NVIDIA graphic adapter with the driver 71.89, use another driver 71.84. ;) Regards Best Regards Viper System: Intel Core i7-4790, 3,6GHz, 16GB RAM, 128GB SSD, 2TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB GDDR5, TM HOTAS Warthog;(MSFFB2 for testing); TrackIR4 +Track Clip Pro; Windows 10 Pro.

ViperVJG73 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 After installing 1.12a start Lock once with double clicking on the "lockon.bat" file in directory of Lock On. This should resolve that problem.
