I reinstalled the latest nVidia drivers befomre coming on here and when I click the nVidia tray icon to bring up the control panel, my monitor goes blank with a black screen for a second. However I'm guessing if it crashes out on something as simple as a menu, they'll probably be other equally stupid things that will make it crash as well. It doesn't die if I open the menu from the map screen, so this may be a workaround. That is until I press the escape key or click the corresponding icon to bring up the in game menu, then it just dies. I can do everything: set course, dive, surface, fire guns, launch torpedos, everything. I don't think they appreciated it very much when I pointed out that it's probably more down to bad programming, a rushed release and not enough time spent making sure the game worked reasonably well on a wide range of machines. Especially when it uses the same engine as Silent Hunter 3 and that supported a lot more cards.Īll I've gotten from the game forums and any Silent Hunter fansites is stuff about how the game is very demanding and the minimum specs are optimistic. That to me just screams of poor programming. I've actually just found out that Silent Hunter 4 only supports 4 nVidia cards 6200/6600/6800/7800, but supports a lot more ATI cards. They tend to ask their eastern European developers to produce complex simulations and then not give the developers enough time to get it finished and bug tested (Lock On Modern Air Combat is a prime example). I do know Ubi don't have the best record when it comes to sims. I think there's more chance of a Yeti climbing in through my bedroom window and stealing my DVD collection than there is of getting this "game" to run on my PC.

I was posting here in the slim hope that someone may know a reason why something as simple as a menu is killing my PC, or how to solve the nv4_disp.dll issue.

My PC is well inside the recommended specs so there should be no reason why it wont run. I've literally thrown everything (including some harsh language) at this PC since Tuesday trying to get this game to run. Which is odd because the same menu is on screen when the game first starts. The lot! However if I try to open the save menu it just resets the PC. I can do everything, set course, fire guns, torps. I updated my VIA Hyperion chipset drivers and now the game will run. As I said it wasn't working at all, just getting to the missions and resetting the PC.

I found driver cleaner wasn't removing the nv4_disp.dll file and so deleted it myself in safe mode before installing the new drivers last time.Ĥ) Direct X is up to date as are my soundcard drivers (It's an Audigy and the newest driver I can find on the creative update site is from )ĥ) Bit more info on the game. I've checked and double checked the windows update site and there are no more updates for my OS (Win XP Home, SP3)ģ) When installing new video card drivers, I uninstall old ones first and use driver cleaner to remove any leftover files. Then I reinstalled windows and all updates I could get. Actually I took the PC back down to it's component parts and made sure everything was cleaned and reseated. I figured something was wrong with my PC and so formatted. There is a 1.5 but it's only available with the U-Boat Missions addon which I haven't bought)Ģ) When I got the game it wouldn't work at all, just kept crashing as soon as the missions started. Sorry I should have said what I'd done so far.ġ) The game is patched to the latest version that I can get (1.4.
