GT Legends Freezing/Locking up...

OzZie · 5 Mar 2006 at 15:55

Recently got a steering wheel, so i decided to purchase GT legends.

However, the game often freezes up on the menu's, less so now with the 1.1 patch installed, but it is still frequent.

The computer restart's itself soon after the freezing

Heating isn't an issue, at the GPU and CPU run nice and cool. Nothing is overclocked. Omega Cat 6.1 installed with x800xt.

Any ideas?

Mine did the same, but then i defragged using diskeeper (can use windows one) and it was fine after that.

May work for you also.

If you have fastwrites "off" change to "on". If its set to "on" do the opposite. I use an x800xt and changing from off to on sorted it.

Thanks for the replies.

I've just reformatted anyway, so hopefully the game should be fine, as reformatting seems to cure everything

If it doesn't, i'll change the fastwrites settings. It's always turned off even though i don't overclock, so i'll give that a whirl.

Fast writes enabled did it for me with my AGP card x800xt. In some rigs it needs to be on, on others off.

On my new PC I have a GF 7800 GTX 256 and recently I have been getting occasional CTDs when trying to load a track (either quick race or replay). Not often, but now and then. After rebooting seems to go away. Any thoughts?

Found the problem: ATi 6.1 and 6.2 were causing a lot of games to crash including Richard Burns Rally.

Solution: Try older drivers (im using Omega 5.12s now)
