argggg IL2 crashing to desktop

[HH_RitterCuda]

ok I thought I had a bad black death track when testing but trying to fly with the Hounds last night proved different. I can run the game for Exactly 45 second then it crashes to desk top.

I'm running ATI on 2008 too.

Il2 ran fine, then when I tried again I got the desktop

Now I'm getting mission loading errors, map loading failure.

Try again and @ 23% I get to admire my desktop again.

I suspect a Windows update, have tried turning of DEP and running SFC but to no avail.

Too tired to continue, will dig more in the morning.

The Ubi-fix patch is supposed to fix loading problems with the Ubi download version(if you got that one).

And anytime I go to desktop with Alt-Tab I have problems. Windows key always works.

ok I uninstalled the vid drivers and ran the game and got past the 45 second mark went to 1 min. 4 sec then stoped the game on window diriver i get 1fps ..... so i'm betting on a driver confict

the only thing is the link given here might be to XP and I need vista64

ok having trouble getting a clean install of vid drivers but the problem is definitly with a driver conflict. on the window driver I get 1fps in the game but we past the 45 second and the window key works.
