Whichever way you come at MTW NVidia or ATI, it seems you get a problem, even though they are different. But the fact ZoneAlarm saw Medieval_W.exe trying to launch C:\Temp\#f39a36.tmp, is a worrying issue for the game data side!

Re: Need Technical Assistance
I've got a Mobility 4850 running under Vista with no problem. I don't think the long load times are related to the graphics card, but something else in the system. Never heard about the .tmp file, that is a new one.

Re: Need Technical Assistance
I have seen Nvidia and ATI cards with the long load times problem, and when removing the card and using onboard vga, the problem was enitrely gone. This is why I think it has something to do with the graphics card. I have seen this on both PCI-e and AGP as well. It is not clear why some have this problem and others do not. Motherboard perhaps? Or BIOS settings? Though personally I have no BIOS settings to change for PCI-e.Originally Posted by drone

The .tmp file is not a problem. This is normal.

Re: Need Technical Assistance
This is good to know, I've had this problem for years and until now I had no idea what aspect of my computer caused it. If it could be solved or worked around without disabling the graphics card that would be great of course, but this is progress anyway.
