[Crashes on Loading/Freezes on Loading Screens]

Ok, then that would suggest the ram being assigned to the 5450 is 1GB or lower. If I havent asked already whats the make/model of the laptop..?

It's actually a desktop computer, lol.

malloc failure for 134217736

This suggests 2 things -

1. you need to update the gfx driver.
2. and/or - your gfx card has a low amount of ram.

Have you run GPU-Z to see how much video ram your HD 5000 series has? and which HD5000 series card is it exactly..?

Looks like I don't need to do this anymore, I lowered the screen resolution and it seemed to have worked. Decent fps at times too! What bothers me is that it sometimes drop in brightly lit areas.. but it's still a wonder, nonetheless. Cheers!

 

Also, card is AMD Radeon HD 5450

you got a malloc error,

you could add

 

seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "1"

seta image_useNormalCompression "2"

seta image_useAllFormats "1"

seta image_useCompression "1"

seta image_preload "1"

 

to the darkmod.cfg file if they are not already there

 

then add

seta image_downSizeBump "1"seta image_downSizeBumpLimit "256"

seta image_downSize "1" seta com_videoRam "512" (or however much video RAM you have)

Tested and it won't work, unfortunately. Same error as always, Any other fixes?

I'll list the things that matter:

2 GB RAM

ATI Radeon HD 5000

200 GB Disc Space

AMD Athlon 2.4 GHz

low end specs, but I'm going to upgrade in the future.

That was fast! Thanks for the reply, guys, I'll try these fixes once I get home. I'll keep you guys posted on whether they work or not. Still, thanks again! I appreciate it a lot.

Hi, I've been waiting to try out TDM but I can't seem to run it, I've read the FAQ, the Installation process and even updated my TDS version, game runs fine on the menus, but whenever I start a mission, it either freezes on start up or crashes, as I've said before; I've read the FAQ and I don't think this is caused by my memory or my .dll being outdated. Would appreciate any help, thanks!
Oh, and if it helps, I've only updated the mod to 2.02 and my operating system is Windows XP. I can provide more details about my specifications if requested.
Here's the log:
