I have this strange problem. Sometimes when I load certain maps (MP Practice, C&C_Under, some missions) after loading I get a bluescreen. It mentions G200disp.dll (or something similar, if someone tells me how to check I will) and also says PAGE_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. Anyone know why this might happen?

Using Windows XP (SP2 I think, couldn't install SP3)
Matrox MGA-G200 for my graphics setup (also have Matrox Quickdesk)
Scripts 2.9.2
This has happened before several times. I just started playing again on this PC, played a mission fine and some servers, but when I loaded MP Practice, crash.

Need more info, I'll do my best to provide it.
Thank You

Write down everything on the BSOD would you? (I need to go and look up the error code)

How old is this computer?
That graphics card sounds/looks very old.

I can't say how old it is. I'll say it's a Hewlett-Packard Vectra. I think that's old Huh

And I will go ahead and purposefully initiate the BSOD to copy that error code since I know of no other way Rocked Over

Managed to get this down before it went away:
STOP: 0x00000050
G200DISP.dll
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

I disabled automatic restart so if that isn't enough I'll do it again and copy EVERYTHING if I need to.

Personally I think this is because I have a sucky graphics card but maybe it might be something else... thanks for the replies.

I'll disable auto-restart and copy all of it if I need to but I only got this:
STOP: 0x00000050
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
G200DISP.dll

I just think it's a sucky gfx card but it could be something else... Thanks for the replies

Yea I do not think renegade should be able to run on that computer at all, look at the specs of renegade and that should justify that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_and_Conquer:_Renegade

Probably not, but it does a fine job considering such requirements! Not much lag, renders fine, so on and so forth... I guess this computer's old-ness is the cause of such bluescreens and I should be grateful that's all I have to deal with.
