Hi
First, sorry for my English
I'm playing Thief 3 and like it very much so far, but now I have run into a
big problem - a game crash :-(
I have seen the cutscene where Garret goes to the Keeper library and where
Gamall (the hag) has killed some of the Keepers. After that the new
objective says:
"Go to Auldale, figure out where Gamall's lair is located, then break into
it"
I then go through "Old Quarter" to come to the loading zone that leads to
Auldale and say yes to enter Auldale. The loading finish but after a second
or less, Thief quits to the desktop. You just get a small glimpse of where
you start in Auldale, but then *bonk* :-(
My system is:
PIII, 1GHz
512MB RAM
20 GB free space left on the hard drive
GeForce 3 Ti 200
SoundBlaster live 1024
Windows XP Pro with SP1
DirectX 9.0b
nvidia driver version 56.72, but have also tried with an older driver
version 52.16.no luck
(Yes, I know it's not much, but it did run quite good until now)
The released patch has been applied to Thief 3
I have reinstalled Windows XP but Thief still crashes at the same point
I have tried to install Windows 2000 (same PC) but no luck
I have tried to restore another (earlier) saved game and then played through
it till I got to Old Quarter again, but it still won't load Auldale (so it
shouldn't be a fault in a saved game)
It still loads all my previously saved games without any problem.
Has anyone had the same problem or some idea how to fix it
Please let me know if you need more information - at the moment I can't
think of anything else
Thanks in advance for any ideas
Kind regards
Benny
