What OS are you running? Blue screen means that the vid driver has completely failed, which they shouldn't be able to do!

Can you post a dxdiag of your system

Thanks

If you can just post the first 100 lines or so here I can get it quicker.

Your driver is a couple of years old, can you upgrade and see whether that helps?

Thanks a lot

Cheers

Pip

Driver updated, now to see if the game crashes Seems to have fixed the problem, thanks.
