Banjo Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I'm sure that a lot of you have experienced those annoying, random BSODs when playing Halo. I think I may have found a solution. I have no idea why it works but it does for me. Ok, right click on the Halo icon and add "-window" after the quotes. Launch halo and set your video settings. Play for a little bit and then get out and remove the -window. Play some more and see if this helps. I don't know if this will help you but now I can do things like change resolution and exit Halo, which always caused a BSOD for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt74441 Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I found that you needed to enable AGP fast write in the BIOS. I don't see your solution actually solving anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaWShadow Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I see you have ATI cards, so this is a problem with the ATI drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptiPlex Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I see you have ATI cards, so this is a problem with the ATI drivers? Nobody is 100% sure. Someone's blaming Gearbox (bad Halo code?), others are blaming ATI (conflicting code in the drivers?), and some are actually blaming Windows for the problem. Take a pick. Well, ATI 8500/9000/9200 card users need to wait awhile for the next patch, as I believe it is set to be released around Christmas or something :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
