Same! Now I am experiencing crashes in appliactions like WoW and Oblivion which I can safely say have never crashed for me in the 2 yrs I have had my current system. WTF. I called your tech support and was told to send over info did so and was told my drivers where out of date. They are NOT out of date however since my SCDA crashes began I now am having driver issues with other titles. I repeat I did not update or change my drivers, so how did they alter themselves?

#1 for me on Kinshasa streets level. Crashes every time I load during a game. Loading after quiting works but means I have to wait for the whole level to load again.

#1. Saved games not loading correctly
#5. Visual C++ Error - Application has requested the runtime to end ...

I have problem:
2. Conflicts with SLI configurations.

I assume it's SLI. The game runs and I match the spec required to run the game, but when a level loads (doesnt matter which one), I simply see through the walls, there are none/few textures visible on screen, and only shadows are being displayed. I'm running the game on the "Next-Gen settings" and I don't see what else would conflict with the game other then the SLI. My dual NVidia 6800's have had the right drivers installed so that they are compatible with DirectX 9.0c.

Funny thing is...I had the game working for the last couple days with my SLI, but all of a sudden, it's failing

#4
I'm Giving up.

Issues 1 and 4
Currently on the Shanghai mission, Screen clicks into an unsupported res or something like it.

ASUS 6800GT 93.71

problem #1 for me

I get 1 and 3. what about the Crash to desktop when Alt-tab

Yes, I am having the following problems:

#1 (Kinshasa)
#4
Unlocked equipment does not become available.

Also, there are only two sound adjustments possible, but no matter what I tried the sound of some of the voice acting (particularly Emile during missions) was much quieter than the ambient sound, and was almost impossible to hear in some cases. Sound card is an SB Live! Value.

Except I get unexpected crashes from the autosaves (only in Kinshasa mission 2). Saves that I initiated were ok.

Got the startup problem here too!

1. Saved games not loading correctly.

Yes, I am running into this problem.

That and general stability issues. My other modern games work fine.

Wanted to add that enabling HDA seems to cause a immediate crash for me.

I'm running a X2 3800+ on a Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe, Corsair value 1GB RAM, PNY 7900GT. I've updated to the newest nvidia video and motherboard drivers. Installed directx off Microsoft's site. Installed the AMD patch for dual core processors.

Fiddling with some of the video settings seemed to improve stability for me. I have been playing for the last 2 hours and finally received a crash after the tanker level ended.

Best of luck to the tech support/programmers on this one. It seems like a fun game but I just hope everyone can enjoy it.

Yes I am running into this problem:
#3,#5

#1 and #4.

I experiance crashes at load screens between levels, and seemingly at random throughout game play. Some crash me to desktop with the "splintercell4.exe" error, some crash with a reboot the only way out, and some freezes my screen, and acts like my Video card was disabled (Floating txt "no input").

Here's a couple errors from MS Event viewer;

Faulting application splintercell4.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module d3ddrv.dll, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0008587a.

After looking into the "d3ddrv.dll" I found that is a common problem for TNT video card users in UT2k4. I still don't know why that would hurt my 7800gt, but I thought it was worth telling you.


Specs;
AMD 3700+
1.0gb RAM
eVGA 7800GT 256mb
Drivers updated, DirectX updated.

i get problems 1, 3, and 5.

2gb Ram
Dual opteron 270 (2 dual core cpus)
7800gtx Nvidia using 77.** series drivers (latest drivers have problems with chaos theory)

In the period of 1 half hour i experieced 4 crashes. 2 forcing me to restart comp.

-saved games wont load
-random crashes
-hard crashes forcing to reboot comp
-game will start to load and then crash


and i have not even finished the first mission yet. But when the game runs, it is smooth enough and playable.

I dont see what use is a headcount on a forum that few people know about...

Game doesent function properly due to all the problems listed above and a patch is needed.

8800 issues... Etc Etc

I personally stopped playing after the Passanger liner mission, too many bugs too enjoy the game.

Hello all, I'm having a problem I havent red before so I thought lets post it and maybe someone can help.

AMD Athlon 64 3400+
GeForce 6800 Ultra
1 Gig ram

Got all up to date accept the videocard which runs on 84.56

Hope anyone can help me, I'm realy dieing to play Smile

Prob #5 - Ran fine once, last 7 times I get an error before the opening movies even start!

Yev....UBI is trying to narrow down system specs that are having problems...hence the thread.
