I recently installed HL2 and have been able to play it with reasonable stability -- just the occasional audio stutter and framerate slowdowns. But as soon as I started on the route kanal (sp?) level the game crashes 100% of the time with a driver error message referencing IDirect3DDevice9:resent(). Has anyone else encountered this?
Here are the system specs: (Vaio a270 laptop)
- Pentium M 1.6MHz
- 1.25G RAM
- ATI Mobility 9700 64Meg
I tried updating the stock drivers to Omega but it didn't solve the problem. The crash still occurs at the exact same place with the exact same message. Any suggestions? I really don't want to start down the rat hole of isolating out every configuration and game setting variable if someone else has already ID'd the problem...
