Half-Life 2: Episode One keeps crashing.
I figured it would be related to my Audigy sound card so I removed it and turned on the built in RealTek AC97. While I was at it I removed the wintel PCI modem. I never used it and wanted to make my PC as friendly to steam as possible.
I optimized my hard drive, ran the whole Symantec Norton tools, etc. I was able to play further but still eventually keeps crashing.
Sigh. Need to get a new PC, this one is becoming a pain to support.
Update: Last night I booted up into Ubuntu Linux, ran the latest Transgaming Cedega application and installed Episode One on it.
Amazingly it installed and ran. Still locked up though. The only difference was that it locked up the application and not the whole desktop. I was able to kill Cedega and not have the whole computer sieze up.
Transgaming rocks. Up until the game locked up Half-Life 2 ran at full speed.
I so need a new PC. The only thing I have not tried is swapping out the video card.
