Do you fold with the graphical console? If so, that client uses OpenGL and can crash games to desktop if its running at the same time with another graphically intensive application.

If not then maybe a bad install/download? Try re-installing or re-downloading and see if the problem persist.

I was talking about the CPU graphical client, it uses the GPU to render those little protein units that you see.

There is a GPU client though, however its only for ATI cards X1900 and up last time I checked.

well, I've downloaded it and having only played the demo version a few years back on lower detail settings, it looks quite lovely at the highest settings on my newer (but now aging) PC.

However, I now feel the need to eat a burger so I've had to stop playing..................

I'm sure there's plenty of torrents for Far Cry, but I doubt they're the ad-supported version... ;).

I'm having the "quits after the loading screen" problem as well. I've had a look on the UBIsoft forum for clues and the best one I can come up with is it's a graphics card driver problem, A newer driver may fix the issue (I haven't tried yet). In one thread I was reading a user fixed the problem by using older drivers! (nvidia card)
