Hi Guys!
I have a problem with my game freezing. I have had the base game for 2 weeks and my laptop is 2 months old. I don't want to buy the expansions until I have this problem fixed. Laptop: HP Notebook 1...

@Royalmodern The command starts a bit before the part you copied and pasted:
reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\devenv.exe" /v DumpType /d 2 /t REG_DWORD
I left out the outside quotes; please try copying and pasting exactly the above command. When you're done, the command to reverse the change is:
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps" /f
@puzzlezaddict I'm feeling so daft. What am I doing wrong?
It just says "ERROR ACCESS DENIED"
I'm sorry for being such a huge bother.
@Royalmodern Are you in an admin user account on your computer, and are you using the "Run as administrator" option for Command Prompt? I tried this same command last night, just to make sure it worked, and it was fine. But it does need the proper permissions to run, and it's possible something else is going on with yours.
You're not being a bother; it's just that given the errors in your dxdiag, I really want to see exactly what the underlying cause of the crashes turns out to be, again if the crashes are even the type that would create a crash dump. If no crash dump is created, that would be interesting too: it would say something about the nature of the crashes that's worth knowing.
@puzzlezaddict I didn't run as administrator. Done it now just got to wait for it to crash. I have been playing, pretty much all day and it is yet to crash on me.
Thank you for your patience.
