@Burndog: a couple of good options are buy thru Steam where available or check playasia.com... free shipping to Korea (from HongKong where they are based).

I've started having loads of crashes at about 15 hours in. Think I may have burned out a DIMM.


Sounds to me like the gpu is overheating and the performance issues might be occurring because the clock is being ramped down. I'm not sure if this feature is on those cards, but it happened on my laptop, although that was the cpu to be fair.



Johnny come lately.

CPU and solved.


So what happened, was the cpu ramping down because of overheating?



The CPU was clogged with debris, so the fan couldn't push any air past the top. So yeah...it was overheating to a stutter and then crashing.

Anyone who is looking for a copy but not able to buy an English one should just download the game.

The game has NO DRM protection at all. Not even a serial key. You could literally buy the game, install it on 100 computers, and all 100 computers could go online at the same time. Makes it one of the easiest games to download for free as there is no hacking process. Just download and install.

Of course, if you are adverse to downloading mp3s and movies, I guess you would also be to this.

Ah, had exactly the same problem with my laptop. Amazing what a can of air can do.
