One thing I noticed when opening my boot.ini is I have more then one line: [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /usepmtimer Do I duplicate & edit the default=multi line or the one beneath it? (I'm guessing I'm supposed to edit the bottom most line and add in the /3GB right before the /noexecute line) but I want to get confirmation before I accidentally bork up my system and need to re-install the OS. Edit: Never mind I figured it out, it's the second line, not the default= one. On a side note, before this I was suffering continual hang ups on the level transition loading screens, (where it would crash and stay on the loading screen forever) with this fix I can now level transition/fast travel without any more hangs. http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/biggrin.gif Excellent fix, and well worth the time to make work, no unwanted side effects so far with usual system operation (and none expected tbh) so imho it's well worth a try if you've tried everything else and are just about ready to give it up. Edit 2: Well it seems this fix does cause a few errors, (tried it on 2 different computers, each gave a different problem. PC#1: it seemed to work well, but after exiting the game and trying to relaunch it after supper I got a BSOD along with a nv.dll display error, (Likely because the graphics card attempts to use Ram that the 3GB switch has already allocated.) PC#2: When trying to launch the game after exiting It gave a Steam error code 3 and refused to launch until after a system restart. In short the fix works as long as I'm willing to reboot my PC between every play session, (which is a PITA with how often I play for 30 minutes stretches through out the day every few hours as work allows. Anyone else ran into these kinds of bugs? if so what did you do to fix them?
