Fuzzy Wuzzy

I saw Frank Herbert's Dune at Compusa but could not figure out what kind of game it is. Is it RPG or Stratergy like Emperor?

How do you get the fremen to set a thumper? Also what is an Attack Move? I noticed it in the keyboard commands.

Try looking at a the tread Emperor, XP Pro - Kick out / reboot. I found a bug between the Radeon 9000 series and VIA Chipset. Try updating the chipset files. VIA website: http://www.viaarena.com

Couple Questions: 1. What is your system config? ie. Video card, processor, memory 2. Have you tried updating all drivers including motherboard chipset? 3. Have you tried disabling Visual Themes on the compatability tab?

This did not work,"disable this option in System/Advanced/Start up and recovery/settings unclick the box automatically restart under the system failure box." Actually it kept filling up my event log with garbage entries. I went to the motherboard manufacture's website and downloaded the latest VIA chipset Service Pack. The version that IWill had was V4.38. This solved all my problems. I can now run Emperor at the highest graphics settings with no problem. After reading what the patch does I found that the problem wasn't so much the issue with the SBLive 5.1 but with the AGP port. The patch corrects a clock issue.

Thanks for the hint on the VIA Chipset update. I haden't thought about doing that since I never install the VIA stuff when I build a system. Never made a difference till now. At this point it seams to have fixed both issues.

Here is my DxDiag. I have tried all the compatibility modes and it only makes the problem worse.[attachment archived by Gobalopper]

No Norton, and same computer differnt Video card. Originally had a Diamond Viper II.

Currently Athlon Thunderbird 1.3GHz, 256Mb RAM, Radeon 9000 Pro 128Mb with Windows XP Pro with SP1a. I desided to start playing Emperor again and now the game will play for a while and then either will kick me out or will reboot my computer. Any suggestions? I will attach my diag when I get home this evening.
