Q3 crash
wb argh!
i had this issue. sometimes it freezes your pc so hard that you have to perform cold reboot.
try putting this seta xp_drawconsole "0"
in your excessiveplus\q3config.cfg manually.
ATI/AMD Vid-Card?
Any new drivers since you played the last time? If yes, u could try the last working driver.
In past i had it also from time to time when I installed new drivers. Mostly one release older made it working again until the next update which didn't make any problems than.
Thats from my side. But i don't denie that the reason could be also something else.
does this happen on one server or many?
what server do you normally play on btw ?
i would borrow someones config to test.
or u prob need to do one of the following.
reinstall q3.
reinstall mod.
reinstall gfx driver.
still the same, Yes ATI
