Unimatrix Xero Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I installed Carbon the other day, and all was well, untill yesterday when it started to crash at totally random points, the point i remember it crashing it the following Main Menu (just after EA sign in) In race (free mode) In loading screen (challenge series) Ive tried to upgrade to 1.03 but for some reason the update process doesnt work, so im stuck with 1.02, its only done it a few times, the last time it did it, was while i was doing the 'disable 30 cop cars' in the challenge mode and i had just got my 30th car. is anybody else having problem like these? if you having other problems maybe this could become a 'problem thread' hope someone can help me out thankx Uni Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/530047-nfs-carbon-random-crashing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
roosevelt Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hmm... what error are you getting when you try to upgrade to version 1.03? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/530047-nfs-carbon-random-crashing/#findComment-588229983 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I believe this is a well known problem with NFS:Carbon. Did a command prompt window appear for 2 seconds or so then disappear? If so, one way to install the patch is to copy it into the installation folder and run it there. Another way is to run it from the Command Prompt. Here's a thread from the EA forums detailing on how to do it. Patch 1.3 Install Help Scirwode Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/530047-nfs-carbon-random-crashing/#findComment-588235208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeroday Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Have you tried a *complete* uninstall (other then save games) and reinstall? That usually helps.

HDW-mobile Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 maybe it's the same thing what append with NFS MW. you need to install it in admin mode, the same for the patch. it might help! I have the same here to it just crash randomly. but I stopped playing when stuck ad 59% it's the point when the fast cars came in like corvette, lamborgini etc. anyway I'll try to monitor the problem. maybe procesmonitor can help.
