bioshock stability

[romperstomper]

Anyone else find this game incredible unstable ?
It tends to lock up and make a strange buzzing noise .Then you have to reset all custom controls and settings each time .
Such a shame as I love this game but its almost unplayable .

Has been fine for me and I've played it for quite a bit of time. Have you patched it to the latest version?

Yep have just patched it now it wont even load .

Reinstall, patch, make sure drivers are up to date and there are no old drivers left in for hardware you don't use anymore etc.

Yeah gonna try that ,strange as it run fine for the first part of the game ,I'm wondering if having the trail version on my pc somwhere is making it a problem .

thanks

well an update ,I decided to purchase a dvd hard copy of the game and deleted my downloaded one . It crashed much sooner then before
So I have reset all my overclocks to standard and tried playing at a lower resolution .Its still crashing .......oh dear
Maybe I should have tried before downloading the 1.1 patch ,maybe a sytem reinstall but seems a bit extreme .

I've just reinstalled my graphics card drivers and its much better , crashed just now but I managed to played for about 1 1/2 hour before it was every 10mins .
