Default Re: Game Freezes

typos and spacing errors can cause problems. it should produce an error about reading the file instead of just locking up, but you never know. upload the components file you tweaked, someone should be able to notice something in it.

Keep an eye open for double spaces, capital letters being misplaced, and anything that could cuase a memory error.

A couple of other things you can try if using the default components doesn't work:

--Disable Active Desktop, if it's on. Mine gave SEIV fits until I discovered it had been enabled (probably by my son).

--Uninstall and reinstall SEIV. Just be sure to move any modified files you want to keep out of the SEIV folder BEFORE you uninstall! (Yep, I learned that one the hard way.)
