You're ABSOLUTELY sure you can't give me something more accurate than "randomly"?

In the NecroVisioN\Bin directory you have a file named script_error.log from which you can copy-paste the error, maybe that's what you already did, but are you sure that's the COMPLETE error message? I looked up the code you mentionned above but couldn't find a clue.

Lol, give up on that.

Can you see the rest of the hud, particularly the health bar? What about the ammo indicator?

How I'd love to toss a geballte in there....

300Gb just for for Vista? If you care about my point of view,that's 250+Gb of wasted 10k rmp space (unless you also have the "my documents" folder on that hdd too, but it doesn't need 10k rpm though).

Thats precisely the message that was in the log. cntrl+V cntrl+c exactly

Oh I did, one of those options that never works like some other applications Ive used before (Windows in general actually).

Everything else shows up the way it should, minus the FOV being absolutely horrid with a 1920X1200 resolution, why cant they make true 16:10 games?!?!? WHYYYYYYYY, but I digress. This error can be reproduced usually upon loading from one save to anther in a relatively quick manner.

Pardon my ignorance, but wtf is a "geballte"? Wait, is that the cluster of grenades in the game? I dont know if you are from the U.S. (if not, your lucky) but figure it might have been a misinterpretation

Yes my documents are in there, the 10,000rpm just excludes Vista from being the blame for any lag, especially if people do not know how to turn off the indexing service. Games are run off of two 1tb hard drives, both with 32 mb cache's. I know hard drives read and write performance tend to decrease when large amounts of data are being stored on them, but the HD with Necrovision has 800 gigs free; 949 after format of course.

If it happened only once, then let's forget it.

I beg to differ, Windows does its job perfectly. I mean, did it ever fail at displaying a BSOD?

Go to the mod section, there is a fov fix.

I might have a look at it - once I've dealt with th s***load of other thing I've to do, but did you fiddle with "Cfg.CrosshairTrans"?

yep geballte=7grenades strapped together, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_24_grenade they mention the geballte.

Those are details: just put those 1tb drives in raid0 and head seeking times will be neglectables. Besides if you want to scrounge this additional little bit of perf, then there are defragmentation softs that allow you to move some files on outer hdd tracks.
