System spec:

WIndows XP Home, version 2002 - SP3
Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @2.66GHz
2 GB RAM
AMI Bios 080014
GEForce 8600GTS graphics - driver ver 6.14.11.6371
Onboard (Realtek) sound - driver ver 5.10.0.6215

I do not think this is a system issue, as the game otherwise plays fine. However, once I have finished Coveyna Kurgannis all the characters in my party have gained a level - but if I attempt to level them up the game freezes.

Sometimes it will freeze in the character screen, and sometime it will freeze during the next area transition (it will not load the new area module). My main character has attained level 27 by this stage and the other characters are all in the mid-20's for level.

I have 2 mods installed - Kaedrins (ver 4.1 if I recall) and the "The Complete Craftsman" mod. Removing them from the override folder has no effect. Reinstalling the entire game clean has no effect. I have actually replayed this twice (deleting save files from the previous attempt and replaying the entire game) and the same thing happens.

If I do not level up the characters, I can continue playing (although I have not continued for very long, just to check that the game can still perform area transitions - and it can).

I have a digital download version of the game (not Steam) and have successfully completed the game once - on my first playthrough. Since then, this issue has made the game uncompletable.

Can anyone help with this issue? Thanks.

Edited to add: When the game freezes, I am completely locked out of the PC. I have to power off to reset.

How much HD space do you have empty?

How much of your 2 gb of ram is being used overall before your system crashes?

Since your whole system stops responding, it sounds like something bigger than just the game.

[Mr Ordinary]

I've got over 200GB free disk space, and memory usage at the time of the crash is impossible to determine (as I cannot access any utilities to show that) but the usage before, while the game is running, is just over 50%.

I agree it does sound like a system issue, but when it happens is so specific. Up to the point of completing the Sunken City, I have no issues entering/exiting the character screen, nor are there any issues related to levelling characters.

I accept there may be a corrupt game file (not a save), but that would mean the install packs, or one of them, contains the corrupt file as I have uninstalled the game, and reinstalled clean on two occasions - with the same result. I have no way of verifying if a game file is corrupt and do not wish to re-purchase new install packs just on the chance one is.

I have checked my driver versions, and there is a new version of my graphics driver which I have installed. Again, I do not suspect this of being the cause because of the specificity of the issue, and that I have successfully completed the entire game with the current set-up. I will retry with my current game, however, and the new drivers to see if there is any difference.

Edited to add: I have just thought of something. The time I completed the game was before I had installed SoZ and the updates this brings. Could SoZ be the cause of this?

Edited again for update: The new graphics driver makes no difference. So long as I do not level up any character, I can continue playing the game but as soon as I level a character it either freezes in the character screen or during the next area transition.
