I've had F.E.A.R. running on my system (no changes to the system) since November and installed the 1.05 patch today. I decided to fire up the single player again, but it crashes to the desktop right after it finishes loading the level. Multiplayer works fine and I just recently installed the latest nVidia drivers (84.21). No other games are crashing or causing any problems whatsoever. Could it be the 1.05 patch? I wouldn't think it would be the video settings in-game, since multiplayer runs. I've heard of others having problems with 1.05, but I found it strange that multiplayer worked fine...any ideas would be great. Thanks!

And I added a poll question, just for fun.

Perhaps it is the patch. I'm running the same drivers as you but not the newest patch and it is OK.

It's strange...but I guess it's the patch. I was showing my cousin the game and started him a new profile and single player campaign and it worked fine. The patch must not like the old saved games or something...
