Fable - The Lost Chapters (PC) Runtime Crash. Help?

The Problem:

My PC version of Fable - TLC, crashes whenever my Hero gets into the video before the archery training, and after receiving the bow. The error is this:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: ...iles\Microsoft Games\Fable - The Lost Chapters\Fable.exe


This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

[OK]

Seeing as the Microsoft website is not that fun, and slow to respond, I thought i'd check you guys out here, maybe you'd help me better than they would. I've played through already once (past this point) with another character. I was making one to play a warrior instead of a mage. I've ran the DxDiag. No problems found. My system requirements beat the minimum. And even when playing the previous character I was using my Logitech Rumblepad 2 controller. My game has been having a few fits of just shutting down and giving me an error message before I start playing again, prompting me to run in Safemode, which doesn't help either. That sucks, but since I've been saving more often because of it, really hasn't become a nuisance. If you need any more information to help me fix the problem, please let me know!

Thanks to all.

I often get this error when playing mmo's and i am pretty sure it has some thing to do with your graphics card unfortunately i don't no how to fix it i just find ways to get around it...... (sry that i am no help) Mood:feels Un-needed



Edit: getting a new graphics card could fix this if on a labtop your kinda f-ed up because they don't use graphics cards but if not there are a lot of sites that you can buy them from or Best Buy works

You made sure your drivers are up to date?

Tried lowering the resolution or refresh rates?

Also what sound card do you have? Is it an Audigy card?

I tried it on a P4 2.4 512 MB ram and a GeforeFX 5200 and I crash in the same spot, the drivers could be the problem but I doubt both computers have the same version, wonder if it's a problem with install?

Not sure it's the grafix card thats the problem. I have the same problem. the games crashes at a certian location everytime. Then I have to delete my save games in order to play to the same spot just to crash again.
I have a ATI Radeon x550 grafixcard.
About 3-4 month ago I played the game and completed it, so I can only speculate as to why it crashes. Same computer as then.

Google a tool called RefreshForce.
I used it and was able to fixed the problem.
The problem is caused by refresh rate problem. You have to return them back to default, or 60hz.

Hope I helped.

I got it at the end of the game, I wont say when because it'll be a major spoiler. But it just basically means your computer cant take it, so you'll have to skip the cut scenes. It's a pain, but that's what you'll have to do.
