Hi everyone,
So I just downloaded this a couple of days ago and it seems to be working fine (win 7, 64-bit 2GHz CPU and 4GB RAM) but when I reach trapper town and try opening a certain bookcase, the game crashes and show me this:

Anyone know what causes this, is there a fix?


EDIT:
Nevermind, installing killaps unofficial patch seems to have solved the issue. That's an awesome patch btw, I'm surprised it isn't mentioned somewhere immediately upon downloading the game.

EDIT2:
Nngh. Seems it wasn't fixed. Now the same thing happened once again in the toxic caves, during combat.

Try un-installing F2 and reinstalling in a non program files directory (For example, 'C:\GOG.com\' instead of 'C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG.com'). UAC in Win 7 and Vista can interfere with program operation.

Make sure you install with administrative privileges; to be sure, right click the installer and click 'run as administrator'.

Note that I'm inferring that you have either of these two OS's since I see (x86) and it looks like you've got an AERO desktop. If this is wrong, then my above advice is probably worthless.

EDIT: killap's patch require that the program is NOT ran in any sort of compatibility mode, if I recall correctly. You can't even have 256 colors on: make sure that everything is unchecked in compatibility settings.

Thanks. Yeah, I mention Win 7 above but I suppose it could be clearer :)
I'm not sure about AERO Desktop, I'm using whatever came with Win 7 as default.

Yeah for killaps patch I had to go into the config and set graphics mode=4 as well as uncheck the compatibility mode. No problems after that.

I've finished the game since with only a few crashes here and there, it seems to happen almost exclusively in combat and might have to do with the targeting mechanic. I'll try changing the directory if it happens a lot on my next playthrough.
