I had to reinstall Winxp and lost everything. crashedĮa Tech Support also sugested I update the chipset driverson my Motherboard from the nVidia website, which I did, and my PC completely crashed. I even reinstalled the game many times, to no avail. I flashed my Motherboard, and updated all my peripherals' drivers Graphics card, sound card, AMD chip, and my DVD and Cd drives, still freakin crashed. I use Windows 8 on my PC (with a patch so that I get the normal Windows desktop), but did not give it much thought. Hi there, Recently I decided to fire up the classic RTS-game Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth from EA Games. I deleted and uninstalled them all, still crashes. Wallpaper Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth. I read a forum about Game Copying software being installed on your PC, and the game codes tends to disable games. I worked with Tech Support, they suggested that my grahics card didn't have AGP Status enabled in the DxDiag, and that I was sharing the same IRQ addresses with my Graphics and Sound card. A couple of times I got an error message: 'exception_access_violation'.
When I play Battle for Middle Earth, for about 15 min or so, it gives out a repeating sound then freezes.
