Did you make any changes to the game?
I usually only got this one after I screwed something up while modding.
It disappeared again after I fixed the wrong line or whatever caused the crash.

Well, that's what solves problems in over 90%... But i would not recommend to reinstall your FO until someone says that there's no other way to fix it. But if you don't mind to reinstall it, this might solve youre problem very quick - or not at all.  |

sorry for double post, but after a frustratingly difficult uninstalling and reinstalling, and repeating the process over and over due to the game crashing in the very starting up instead
and then after the startup worked, the reinstall failed to fix my Instant Action game crashing.

no, no, no
Ram is really cheap at the moment (ironically, atm). About 100 bucks for 2 gb ddr2 I think!
But anyway, what's ur rig?

Errrr. *cough*
System Requirements für Armada II: Fleet Operations
Minimum:
Pentium 4 (1.5 GHz) or Athlon 1500+
256 MB RAM
Windows 2000
64 MB Video Card
4x CD-ROM drive
1 GB hard-disk space
Recommended:
Athlon 2000 + or Pentium 4 (2.44 GHz) and higher
1 GB RAM THIS COULD BE YOUR PROBLEM
Windows 2000/XP/Vista
128 MB Video Card or higher
LAN or broadband internet connection for multiplayer
You most likely need to get some more RAM; possibly something else is taking up that last bit of space you have and hogging it while your loading instant action...
Just half a gig should do it...
On the other hand, if this is a very recent problem and nothing else has changed on your system... take it to the tech guys at a comp store or maybe the Geek Squad.

Yeah, some of my friends use the gamegoin thing and it actually works fairly well!
Darn that it's a recent error though... but on the other hand it makes the problem easier to fix.
Good Luck!
ps you can still play online right?
