NEED For SPEED Most Wanted: Crashes to Desktop: Please Help

jnikhil88 · April 4th, 2008, 11:01 AM

Similar to Sapam's problem

I recetly bought NFS MW and love it! It works OK, EXCEPT for "Milestone Events" in Career Mode. Everything else (Quickrace, general video, Race Events) is just fine. Only the Milestones... They crash right to the desktop.

Can anyone out there help??

G'day all
After my previous post I then went and had a computer upgrade and also bought NFS Carbon. New system should play everything.
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L
Core 2 Duo 3Ghz cpu
Geforce 8600GT 512MB
4GB RAM, (though XP only reads 3.5GB)
Audigy 4 sound card

Sh!t hot sh!t hot sh!t hot yeah!!!

Anyhow, NFS Carbon began to crash also. I found somewhere on the net to run it in compatibility mode for Win98. It works!!! It never crashed after that. I've re-installed NFSMW but haven't yet played it. Hoping it will work for that too.

So there you have it, run the game in WIN98 compatibility mode.

Cheers
Forrykook

even so, there's no reason it should need to be run in Win98 Compatibility, since the games were made & designed to run in WinXP...

running in Win98 Compatibility may be a Quick fix, but it doesn't really solve the problem, something else is going on, & needs to be worked out.

I was having the same issue with my game crashing. However, it was NFS U2 not MW, but same issue. Ended up having to disable the antivirus, I was running Avast, and as long as it is enabled, it randomly shuts the game down, with it off, all is good.

I had the same problem. My NFSMW and NFSC crashes to desktop. I realize that the probleme was the new driver for my pc wheel trust predator GM-3500R FF so i uninstal it and everything works like charm with my original driver that came with the wheel. Maybe your problem has the same solution, so try to uninstal your drivers and reinstal older or newer ones. I am sure that something like this will fix the problem.

Hi all, I joined this forum bcoz i m having the same problem with NFS MW.
The game is crashing to windoes without error message, just after uprading the parts for the car (or buying a new car or resuming to free roam in the city). I applied 1.3 patch also but didn't work. If someone know the solution please help me.

My configuration is:
Intel E8400 3.0GHZ, 1GB 800MHZ RAM.
