Left 4 dead crashing all time

[Columbo]

Only this game causing me issues.
Got a HD4870 1gb and running 8.12's on Vista 64, none of the fixes Ive have tried have worked.

Never crashed once on my 4850 which I no longer have.
When it crashes, the games just exits and no error message is given.

Anyone had the same problem and fixed it?

Options - Video - Advanced Settings - Multicore Rendering = set to 'disabled'
Cured all my crashes in L4D

I have the same problem on my GTX260 SLI setup, the game just exits and no error message. Sometimes its after 15 mins of gameplay & sometimes it could be over an hour, this is the only game I'm having problems with.

I was getting the random ctd issue with l4d when using the gta4 beta drivers.

Rolling back to 180.48's seems to have done the trick though.

Looks like the game will need patching then or a driver update perhaps? Quite frustrating really as its the most fun Ive had on a game for a long while.

Weird, works fine here (4870X2, 8.12s and multicore rendering enabled)

Same here, makes a change to have a 4870X2 and not have issues for a change

Saying that do you get corrupt textures if you hibernate your machine before playing?

Not tried that, I don't usually hibernate my machine
