Crash on opening menus - LemonAIDS - 09-09-2010

The game works fine for me except whenever I try to open any menu (journal or esc menu for example) the game freezes up and crashes with no error message. I've updated all my drivers and whatnot the right way but no luck.

The likely reason is that you have an X-Series ATI card and this is a known issue that Frictional are looking into...

Already posted in this thread if you want to look at the progress:

I have an X1800xt with this problem and have just played as far as I can without accessing menus / journals / etc Tongue

Atlas: Try updating drivers. HD 2300 should have new fresh drivers (I have a 2600 myself)

And for the rest of you: Yes, it is that X-series bug! Sad But I will do my best to try and fix it!

Sadly the mobility HD 2300 is not supported by ATI Sad but I've updated my drivers to omega and used the mobility modder, and still having problems with crashes when opening menus, journals, etc...Ill just wait patiently for the patch.
