Last time I had an issue like this was because of video drivers and virtual memory address spacing. Being on 64 bit you shouldn't have a virtual memory problem as Windows doesn't have a 2GB limit on 64 bit for applications. SO I would try looking elsewhere besides your ram, more specifically on the settings for your video card. If you are running the newest nVidia drivers I would stear clear of nhancer, and test all your card settings at lower rates because the newest drivers are a lot stronger than the old ones.
And it wouldn't matter if he was on XP, XP64, Vista or Windows 98SE he would still have this problem. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Eid Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2008 8:59 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Client crash question Give this a shot. http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showthread.php?t=131328 It's been quite helpful to a lot of people.
