TPM Crashes 2-4 minutes after game launch
Stardock Forums
Hi,
I am running TPM on Windows XP Pro. My graphics card supports 2.0 shading (Radeon X1650) and I just updated sound and video drivers. I am currently updating DirectX. TPM launches and runs smoothly for 2-4 minutes and then freezes the computer, forcing a manual power down. It doesn't stop at any specific screen- I can quick start a game or build a character; after a few minutes, the game still crashes. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris
