Rage crashes when driving.

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 2:45 pm

I have Rage for PC (duh) and the game works fine (relatively) except when I'm driving. When I hop on my four-wheeler near the beginning of the game, Rage will freeze/crash. More specifically, the screen will freeze, but I can alt+ctrl+delete to bring up my task manager and close Rage through that. A window will come up saying "Rage is not responding" as well.

Even more specifically, Rage crashes as very specific points. After you complete the quest to find out what happened to Juno, you get the quest to go back to Dan and the quest to fire off some fireworks at a ridge. When driving back to the settlement Dan is in (if the game worked I might know the names of more stuff..... -_-) the game will crash at a very specific point on the road every time. Now, if I hop off my four-wheeler and run across this point it won't crash. After figuring out I can run across these "crash points" I tried getting back on my four-wheeler and driving across. To my surprise it worked...only to crash at a different point shortly after.

So I'm left with two options: Complain here or run throughout the entire game. Of course, the world is so large running everywhere really isn't an option; I consider the game unplayable if my only option is to run everywhere considering the size of the game space. So here I am, complaining here. Any tips, help, or comments will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My PC specs are:

Windows 7 32-bit
AMD Athlon™ II X3 445 Processor 3.10GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 465 - I have the latest beta version installed (285.38)
4GB of RAM - I don't know where to find the specifics on my RAM cards.

I don't know where to find which version of Rage I have, although I do have the option enabled to keep it up to date, and I did get the patch that released on the 10th.
Sorry, I'm new to Steam and new to PC gaming in general. Let me know if you need other specifics, but I'm not the best at navigating my PC and finding stuff out so I might need help.

Not sure if this will help but it fixed my rage . Read the 12th post down from DarkEyEinc on this link and Good Luck . PS... A girl I know w/ a gforce card used the rage config he posted and start up rage command line and it worked for her as well .
