See title.

is it just when wiring bots ?
does it crash when he lingers too long on bot select in exhibition and import bot ? ?

The same thing is happening to me ): when your wiring bots say if you want a button to turn on the bot. Say you want O to make it turn on/off so you hit the letter O and right when you hit the letter it will freeze D:

It's windows 7. For some reason it screws up stuff and you have to be really quick when wiring or selecting a bot for combat or the game will freeze.

I'm on Windows 7, and have never had a wiring issue. :confused:

No wiring issues ever happened and I'm running an early model Windows XP

That post isn't even relevant...
But anyways, my game started doing this today. In fact, it would take up to a minute between selecting a component and being able to attach it, then another minute to attach it. Made building very difficult. I have a feeling I know why (doing too much at once), but the wiring issue never happened before. I run 7 btw :P

That's to do with your RAM, and too many programs open at once, eating up RAM, and slowing your computer down. Close some of the background programs that aren't doing anything, then get rid of it. I use fullscreen RA2, so I'm not really able to run any background programs, or do anything with them.
Still not really sure about the wiring stuff, though. Perhaps you are using a key that RA2 doesn't recognise, such as the number pad on the right. Not every computer has one of those.

Has he tried re-installing the game?

Nupe. Z, up, down, left, right and x are the only ones I ever use for RA2 :L
Nah, it was all down to RAM. I didn't realise Source FM was downloading at the time, but normally downloading doesn't slow everything to a standstill. Strange, but its all good after a copy paste of my NAR folder and changing the teams/screenies/AI/robot designs to the ones I had.

NFX has it right, most likely... Window Vista and 7 are both very heavy in comparison to XP and put strain on the system. Most PCs running Windows 7 have 4GB or more of RAM, but they need every bit of it to run anywhere close to smoothly. Espeically when multi-tasking.
