Every now and again, usually when a large group of enemies appears, my screen will freeze, go blank (for 10-15 seconds), and then resume - with me, dead in the middle of the screen.
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz
2918 MB RAM
Windows XP Professional
ATI Radeon 9200
- 128MB video RAM
I have the latest video driver, though it is really old. (Thanks ATI)
Any ideas?
I'm guessing you've also gone though a Java update at the same time? Many people experience a hiccup when a lot of objects/enemies spawn at once as the Java system fetches everything into the game.
I also assume you've got the game running on "Low" settings with "Compatibility Mode" checked.
I'm brushing up on the Radeon 9200 and it's looking to be (unfortunately) a somewhat cut down rehash of the Radeon 8500 that's been listed as minimum hardware spec. However, some people have managed an agreeable (for them at least) experience on under-rated hardware.
Also, your quite sure that you've got a 9200 and not a 9200SE, which is even further cut down.
