Game constantly boots to desktop

[Littlealx]

Hey

The only symptom for this seems to be it happens when i press the left mouse button. not all the time, i get about 10 mins before it boots, with no error message. it also seems to boot to desktop a few seconds after leaving a planets atmosphere.

Im running win 98 SE

256RAM

Geforce2MX

Directx9.b

um 833mhz

and thats about it, do you need more?

It also gives me this at the startup of game

failed 0x80004002 to set message drain for c:programfilesdreamcatcherbattlecruisermillenium

gold/gfx/avi/dclogo.avi

Any help would be really appreciated, id love to get stuck into this game

Please register the game and add your profile to your sig. Right now.

Ok ok sorry...

Ive filled out the specs to the best of my knowledge and um with the registering it wants a serial number located on the cd case? (tyvex??!!)

I dont know if this is right but i just got the cd in the box in a clear white case, i tried the number on the bottom of the cd but it didnt like it...

[Littlealx]

mmm... well i checked back and theres a post two pages (ago) where someone has the same prob as me. I got those drivers and it works fine so, yeah sorry for making a dupe post.

One thing i also read; that if you clean up your registery the comp is more stable, my comp is about 4 years old and thats 4 years of games, but im not experiecned with the reg. should i risk trying to clean it up or leave it because it would be very bad??

Tis ok you can abuse me all you want

I got halfway across the galaxy without a crash the first campaign mission for heavy carrier commander. Well needless to say im running low on radine so i went to majora starbase (i think?)

Whenever i go to the "trade" button in a starbase the game boots me out to desktop.

Is there an obvious cause for this?

I still havent been able to register the game because i dont have a serial number. If its a cd key it wants, i dont have one and the game never asked for one when i installed it... please give me a hand fellas..

Your signature still is not correct. You really need to fix it. Refer to this thread for instructions on how to do this.

I CANT!

I dont have a cd key for the game, it didnt come with one and it never asked me for one! its bttlecruiser millenium gold ed, so SHOULD it ask me for a cd code!!?? i cant register because i dont know what it is!!!

I am not using an illegal version in case you think i am i can give you the barcade, and details etc, i just cant find the keycode im supposed to type. Im in australia so maybe the retail changed a little?

Apparantly i was supposed to get a starchart and manual... well all i got was the cd and a "users guide" which is a lot smaller than the full blown manual on the disk. meh. guess ill have to print it. all 152 pages of it

Calm down. Nobody is accusing of having an illegal version.

Go to this forum and post the details of your purchase and I will have someone look into it and find out why you don't have a CDKEY.

Ok im registered and my specs are there now

I installed the 1.01.02 patch after insalling the 1.01.01. I started a new game and i could dock fine. Then i saved a few times and flew around, now when i try to go to tradecom it crashes to desktop... i thought the .02 patch would fix this.. anything i can do?

Did you READ the latest VCF?

Did you READ the latest post about the 1.01.03 patch being released?
