I have a problem with GHG crashing.

If I load a mechanic, I can start a new job, but when I finish it and click the final "OK" after everything's done, it crashes to desktop. Also, if I buy a car from an auction and I click "Catalog" it will crash to desktop. Everything seems to work fine if I start a new mechanic, but if I try to load it, it just doesn't work. Confused

If it helps any, here are my system specs:


Windows XP
149 GB HD
AMD Athlong 3000+ (2.17 ghz)
512 MB RAM
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro (256 MB)

I have all the updates and patches applied. Let me know if you need any more information.

Re: I have a problem with GHG crashing.

I'm pretty sure it's my video card. I can run the game fine with software rendering, albeit with terrible graphics. I see there's a video card update "W2kDrv.upd" so I downloaded it. I didn't have an \Update folder in my GHG folder, so I made one and put the update in there. I ran the standalone updater and it didn't detect it or anything. Maybe it's already installed? Any more ideas?
