Been playing Max Payne without any troubles, but it started bugging out on me at around chapter 10. I have the 6750m.
Without trying to spoil anything, it goes like this: I finish killing the enemies and it goes to a cutscene where the girl walks down the stairs and stands next to a door. Camera goes back to me. While I go closer to her and the door, it gets locked into walking, probably another cutscene when I open the door. However when I open the door, I see nothing but empty space. I even see some parts of the level as if I have a no-clip cheat from Doom.
All hell breaks lose after I try to press ESC to quit. The game crashes and I'm unable to ALT+TAB. CTRL+SHIFT+ESC doesn't bring up task manager. Pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL to load the menu takes a while to load, showing me something like "Security options validating..." or something. This one time, it showed "Failure to display security and shut down options. The logon process was unable to display security and logon options when CTRL+ALT+DEL was pressed. If the operating system does not respond, press ESC or restart the computer by using the power switch." Ever since I've started using computers, this is the first time that I have
ever seen that message. I'm just trying to wrap that around my head - my
ctrl+alt+del just
crashed on me.
Then sometimes I get successful. Task manager finally shows up and I end-task Max Payne. But it's not over. Soon after, my Firefox starts crashing. It takes minutes just to open task manager again to end-task Firefox. Then after that, explorer crashes (not IE, such as, not able to click Start button, open folders...). Then soon after, my mouse freezes and my caps/num/scroll locks don't respond.
It's not a 1 time thing. I've repeated it multiple times, and it happens in that same exact order every time.
And if I sit still and not kill the enemies to initiate the cutscene? The music starts to stutter and repeat like a broken record, and the game would eventually crash.
