Quake2 problems

[decino]

Recently I'm having weird problems with Quake2. When I try to connect to a server (with anticheat) with R1Q2 I crash upon the map load. I get no error message. I can connect with EGL though, but only 10% of the time.

I'm using Windows 7 and this has never happened before. I think a Windows Media Player update is causing this. I had to update it 1 week ago and since then the problems started.

My English is kinda crappy, sorry. Hopefully you can understand what I wrote.
Thanks in advance!

nobody can help you if you don't provide something to work on, a crash log/dump for example

I've experienced a couple of crashes of r1q2 client straight to desktop. No crash dump, no messages or offer to produce a crash dump. It's hard to provide something that doesn't exist.

maybe it's something else, not a crash, if the OS doesn't notify, at least
LE: I've tried a small C program to do stack overflow and it exits without error... interesting

Upon the map load the game freezes and I must shut it down with alt+ctrl+del. Anticheat loads fine. I get no crash report, but it asks me to debug.



However, this does nothing. Am I doing something wrong?



Thanks for the responses so far.

disable the just-in-time debugger:

I disabled it and now I'm getting this message:



Still no crash report.

You can reinstall DrWatson as the default handler with drwtsn32 -i

Then run drwtsn32 to get options such as paths to crash logs / dumps.

I don't crash anymore, looks like I had a virus.
Watch out for "WhereSphere.exe".



Thanks for all your help.
