I have recently purchased Shogun total war :Warlod edition and installed it without problems but after a few hours of play it came to light that 33% of the time upon starting any battle with the game freezing upon clicking the button Begin battle, and resulting in a freeze which can only be resolved by reseting the computer enclosed i have a Dxdiag report with my PCs specs. It should be of some use to youI tried to cut out as much as i could but half of it is still likely drivel...
