HI folks,

I hope someone can help on this.... Do any of you folks play sniper elite? does it run fine?

Here is my problem, I run the game fine for aboout 10 - 15 mins then I get a looping sound from the soundcard and the system crashes with BSOD saying system_hardware_exception.
I done a quick google and found out it was hardware related, but this is the ONLY game this happens with.

I have on my system atm BF2, starwars BF2, bloodrayne2, Q4, brothers in arms - earned in blood, matrix path of neo and serious sam 2. All games work no crashes or slowdowns or any hardware related issues.

If anyone has this issue and have fixed it can you shed some light please, cause I really wan't to play this game.

Cheers,

Gerry.

Yep, I try to use no cd keys as much as possible. I got 2 claws for hands lol, I just need to look at a cd/ dvd and it gets scratched.

I might install again and see if thats the issue.

Cheers,
