Hi all. I finished Gothic 1 about a month ago and decided to play Gothic 2 despite the bugs. You know, I can handle invisible walls, clipping and such... but my problem with GOG Gothic 2 (meaning: with Night of the Raven) is that it constantly reboots my system. I never know when it will happen. Sometimes it's during play, but mostly when I quit the game, when it returns to Windows.

My system is : Windows XP SP3, directx9c, 2 gb of ram, intel dual core 2,13gh, ati radeon 4570 .

Thanks

P.S. Gothic and Gothic 2: part of the games I own more than once.

Invisible walls, clipping problems and reboots? Something is messed up on your end.

Have you tried reinstalling? Also, when reinstalling, make sure you let the integrity verification check complete to ensure your download isn't broken somehow.

If a reinstall doesn't fix it, the next thing to try would be to update your video card drivers (the first entry on this page).

Anyway, hopefully one of these two things will fix it.

Hi thanks. First: I didn't say I had these problems with Gothic. I only have one: that reboot after exiting.

I installed it right, after verifying integrity (was that optional?) and such, but...

Incidentally you made me wonder about that big cache file Gothic 2 tries to create everytime it runs. I'm sure the problem is there.

Probably already did this but make sure your virus protection is turned off.

It is (IMO) more important to be off when reinstalling - sorry, I wasn't clear. I only turn mine off when gaming when things slow down.

Ok, I bump this to say "solved". It was just the "virtual" file the game makes the first time: it seems that somehow it was corrupted, and Gothic2 tried to reconstruct it each time I ran it, with no good results. The solution? Reinstall the game. It was easy. Maybe even locating the file and deleting it would have been enough.

Thanks to all.
