So every time I try to play a multiplayer game C2 works fine. Low but usable fps and decent performance all around. But after every single game, when I try to play again it just crashes when it should be starting.

The memory usage spikes up very high (around 90%) and it's usually around 70-80% on the first game.

Also, whenever I just try to quit the game before it crashes it... well it crashes... I literally cannot quit the game properly... Not quite sure what to say about that.

So... any suggestions? I thought since I'm just using 2 GB of DDR2 (on XP Pro) maybe that's my problem and the game just REALLLYY wants more memory. So in a pathetic attempt to fix the problem, I increase my page file size to ~1.5x the total RAM. 3069 MB to be precise.

Oh, and btw this is a fresh install of XP Pro. Did it 2 days ago.

If anyone has any suggestions or would like to confirm my suspicions that C2 is just a total memory wh0r3 than that would be much appreciated.

Also, it's worth noting that this happened significantly less frequently prior to both updates 1.1 and 1.2. Prior to 1.1 I didn't get any crashes during MP, although interestingly (Read: frustratingly) enough I could still not quit properly and it C2 would just end by crashing itself.

Honestly, C2 seems to have some suicidal tendencies. Effects of my game play style???

Thanks for the help!! It's much appreciated.
