I still can't get the memory edit to work, it totally shuts off my graphic card's ability to render 3D objects. If anyone knows what the problem is (and I posted screencaps of the issues earlier here) I would really appreciate it. Keep in mind it used to work until I took my PC to the shop to install DVD software.

Also catalyst control center wont start up at all, it's obviously a program problem with that, and when I do start it up manually it wont run. Maybe I should list the programs that run to see if they're conflicting?

Well I tried running it without Fraps, and it still wouldn't work. Same exact error as in the last 2 screencaps. I think it's a direct X error but not sure how to fix it. Not sure what it is but when I revert the memory change it works yet again. Everything that uses the video card does not work except windows. Could it have to be that I am using the media center edition of windows XP?

OK I did this for a while and it worked, but today when I tried getting it to work it keeps giving me this error. I don't know whats up with it, it isn't an ingame error but a windows error obviously. If anyone knows what this is your help will be really appreciated. and yes I did do exactly what it said and keep in mind it USED to work for me but suddenly it stopped.
Heres screencaps of the exact errors I got:

When I wore a great helm, I basically could only see what was in front of me. Vision wasn't as bad as I thought it would be be but I did have to turn my head to the side or up and down to see what was below or at the side of me.

I tend to choose rather plain colors (White Tan and Black) because I portray a Knight Templar when I reenact, but back in the days I do know they used bright vibrant colors and whatnot. Before I was more "historically accurate" I always went for earthly tones (green and brown) though, which I doubt were used much back then.

When I duel I use a norman longsword. I did go to a wicked faire one time and felt the later century swords, and I was surprised at how light they actually were, a big break from the viking/norman type blades I'm used to. Better thrusters by far, while the norman/viking type swords are more so meant for cleaving and whatnot.

I'd like to report that I am unable to repair arms and armor through the blacksmith. I ask him about repairing and he says nevermind. Really irritates me that my long axe broke and now I cant repair it.

Maces work a lot better against enemies despite being a bit on the short side, swords are only useful against armorless opponents though unless you stab and even then it's hard to kill them with swords. Using a spear is a bit tricky and will take a while to get used to, but this game has totally forced me to change my play style.

Allright I played the newest version, and I like the items and whatnot as well as the armor, but you might want to consider this. The fact that helmets make enemies nearly invulnerable to overhead cleaves as well as sword swipes is extremely irritating, ESPECIALLY in tournaments.  I have to fight on foot in order to take them out or use a spear on horseback, rather than using a sword on horseback as I normally do. Dunno if this is meant for realism or what but it means I have to totally change my playing style.

I still tried everything you guys suggested and it didn't work.... Really I am fed up with it honestly. I might just trade this PC in for a new one just to play the mod. Oh and for the record I'm using windows XP media center edition if thats a reason then I guess I should get a different version somehow.

Also the link to solve the problem is dead, if anyone can find it posted elsewhere or knows how to solve the problem I'd appreciate it.

Edit: Well I did the boot memory edit for windows and i have managed to play 2 battles without this crash... It even lags a lot less than it always used to, thank god for this now I think I can finally play this without crashes.

I been playing 1257 AD. I noticed it doesn't happen with the older versions of the mod nearly as much. I would like to know whats been causing it cause I really want to play this mod.

Well the freezeup glitch does not occur on the July version of this mod. Heh it's only the newest one, guess i'll just play the older version and hopefully when the next versions released it wont have the freezeup glitch. Whatever it is I hope it's fixed in the next version.
Nevermind the older version does it too. I am going to return my graphics card and see if thats the problem.

Good to see I'm not the only one having this problem. And I've tried that and it still crashed even with a lower res it crashed, oddly the older versions don't crash on me. Guess I'll wait for the newer one to come out and hope it doesn't crash like that.
