    Unhappy MOHAA...get booted back to desktop

    Metal of Honor: Allied Assault

    It happened occassionally but rarely during the game but when I play on-line, I get booted systematically after 10 to 15 minutes!!!

    I don't know what it is, the ping is great.

    Norton 2002...but I have it disabled during gameplay

    Tiny software....but still happens if I have it disengaged

    I am behind a router but I don't have this problem with HalfLife TFC...ever.

    Obviously there must be a bug with this game and I wanted to see if anyone else has encountered this problem.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the late night response but I uninstalled GameSPY and I am only using the INTERNET browser service. Getting some good ping choices from 52 to 100 but there is definitely something wrong with this game that has to be fixed.

    Never happens with Half Life...I just check again.



    DAMN

    when you say booted do you mean from the game totally or back to the briefing room? have been booted back to the briefing room a couple of times for no apparent reason, I always just assumed it was a server problem. But it's not something that has happened consistently. I play on diferent servers all the time.

    I use the internet browsing, no gamespy.

    will see if I can come up with something for ya.

    I use Gamespy with no problems at all. I've noticed that a lot of people are also having the "timed out" problem too. Another message some people are getting is that your not using the correct patch..yadda yadda yadda. I have a friend that has basically the same system as I do and he's having about the same prob and Im not. I can't figure it out too

    I'm hoping that EA comes out with another patch that can correct most of these problems.

    Does the All Seeing Eye program support MoH?

    Problems like this aren't uncommon with EA. Their programing sucks. Look at all the problems generated by the Need For Speed series.

    Thanks for the attempt but it seems that the problem has translated into the actual game as well . I reinstalled the 1.11 patch and decided to play it again in the most difficult level, to keep my interest, but now it's starting to crash as well from freezing to just out quiting to my desktop.

    Nvidia 28.32
    No overclocking whatsoever.
    temps are fine but my Leadtek does not have a temp sensor onboard so I cannot verify that part of it.

    I even ran a memory test and it past.

    MadOnion2001...passed
    HalfLife...no problem
    Rogue Spear...no problem
    Diablo2 with patch...no problem

    At the moment I am exchanging emails with EA support but it doesn't look like that they can isolate it with such limited response. To bad there online chat help doesn't work nor do they have a number I can reach.

    I really like the game when it works

    Talking SOLVED!!

    I have solved the problem and I think it's only fair that I should make a note of it here.

    It's seems that there is a memory limitation in my system when extreme rendering is occurring, I havn't isolated the exact cause but if I have 1 stick of 512DDR in place, there are no problems but when I put in the other stick of 512DDR, the problems start to happen.

    If I switch them around, or put in the other, there is no difference. I also ran a memory test and the memory passed.

    It could either be an addressing problem between my Northbridge chip, the motherboard itself or most likely Windows XP but I'm not sure.

    In conclusion, MOHAA runs fine with the new 1.11 patch and havn't had a single glitch with Video Options set to full abilities at every option, including Advanced.

    Running the game at 1028x768x32 trilinear with every other option...no problem

    If I ever find out what it is, i'll post it in the hardware section.

    Thanks for your input
