Every since getting my new computer which has Vista 64 installed my Halo and Halo CE will crash after a few minutes of playing them. Has anyone else gotten this problem or know how to fix it? I have gone to ATI's website and downloaded the latest drivers. My rig specs are here:
Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) 9550 Quad-Core Processor (4 CPUs), ~2.2GHz Memory: 4GB DDR2 RAM 800 Mhz Hard Drive: Dual 300 GB Video Card: ATI Radeon HD 4870 512 MB Monitor: 19 inch LCD Sound Card: Speakers (High Definition Audio Device) Speakers/Headphones: Sony Headset Keyboard: Ergonomic Keyboard Mouse: PS2 Optical Mouse Mouse Surface: Operating System: Windows Vista™ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1 64 Bit Motherboard: ECS Elitegroup Thanks in advance.

Does Halo even work on 64-bit machines? I can swear I thought it was 32-bit only.

Well since I can't play it maybe that is the case. I sure hope they patch it. I even took out the video card and used the on board video card and it still crashed. Thanks for the reply.

I use 64bit Vista, it works fine.
Try turning off some of the cores. So it is just running on one. |

Nope, it works fine on this lovely machine here, same dual core, but I has 8 GBs of ram :P and nvidia geforce 9500 GT graphics card, 500 GB HD, etc. its probly the antialasing thats stoping you from loading it.. try messing with your graphics card settings.

I have the same quad core and I can run it without turning any cores off O.o |

So? whos to say that it's video card doesnt use anti-alasing still. and for using one core, if you run a app in compatiblity mode for a windows before dual cores where avalible, it would make only one core be used. |
