So here's my problem. I have Renegade, it works, usually gets to the menu screen, but then at some point between the menu and game start, my computer ... stops. Monitor output ceases, keyboard doesn't respond, only a hard shutdown is possible. It's frustrating, I just spent the past two hours updating drivers for the damn program to work and now it does this! Oy vey!

Windows XP Professional
Compaq Presario SR1230NX
1GB RAM
ATI Radaeon 9550 / x1050 series
Soundblaster Audigy


::EDIT::
I TOTALLY forgot to say this: I'm using TFD.
However, it's relevant and irrelevant as it's what I used before as well.

This doesn't really sound like a renegade problem. It seems to me this could be an overheating problem. Or else a virus / extreme spyware maybe?

Oh don't make me laugh! It doesn't even start enough to make my first CPU fan turn on, let alone the over heating fans.
And no, I haven't updated to the latest *cough* unofficial *cough* core patch.
Can you upgrade the core patches in TFD? I thought that you were limited on what things you can do with that damn version.
And there is no spyware on this computer, I take pride in my safeness on the internet. Same with viruses.

You can install CP2 on TFD and the latest scripts(3.4.4) the only thing you really don't need is the 1.037 patch which just messes up your install of renegade since the TFD version has it already.

Is the game whitelisted in your firewall?
