Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

[Dark Jaguar]

i figured as much, I just dont understand why. all of their games have issues, PC and console. Why dont they spend an extra month or two to bug fix? or hire more people :D

DJ/ i get disk read error too, but it's actually because of the fan system (for me). I take an old tooth brush and clean the vents and use an air can (the kind you use to clean keyboards) and hit both vents and then the inside. I smoke so it gets alot of build up quickly but I bet if you clean the vents out and use a lens wipe on the GC reader lens you should be good. that's funny though you got a disk read error in MP, i never got one for it.

I didn't get a disk read error, I got a lockup. In fact, I believe that's exactly what I said. You know, it was that glitch in the first Prime that happened occasionally when a new area was being loaded off the disk. Fortunatly, it only happened a couple of times. Once when I ran through two rooms really fast, and another time when I was on an elevator. Well, I suppose technically that makes it a sort of disk read error, an error in the way it reads from the disk. Anyway, I don't have a smoke problem around here so my laser lenses stay clean. I use a special disk to clean them when they do get dirty though. It has a bunch of little brushes on it so when a certain track is selected, the brushes hit it at a billion RPMs for a few seconds.

ABF, it may just be you have a lot of junk running in the background. A properly run computer won't encounter crashes unless the program itself has a problem. And, well, Starcraft and WC3 have simply not crashed on me as it seems all such bugs have been stomped out.
