Subject: WTF

When i get to the security override center on the silent cartographer I keep getting a "gethering acception data". wtf?

Would the fact that i just OCed my GPU yesterday have anything to do with it?

Try re-installing Halo.

It probably isn't you're GPU, but overclocking is risky.

nope, i just tried going back to stock settings, i still get the error.

  • 08.27.2006 2:45 PM PDT

That's happened to me a lot too, in totally random places when its loading a new part of the map, or sometimes when the games starts. However, a month or so a stopped all of a sudden, the same way it began.... it really makes no sense

for me its always the exact same place, its not even at a loading zone. and i just reinstalled again, but it still wont launch.

gathering expedition data is where a map file is lost, or hasnt been instaled if a re-instal doesnt work your basically screwed.

hm, you scanned the disk for errors, right? Another possible problem; is the disk scratched? That could cause an error in the map.

those are the 2 things i can think of.



EDIT: Oh, did you try and drop the graphics down to fixed function? There might be something that is in that room that your card cant handle *though unlikely*

I kno how to scan my HD for stuff but u said my halo disk.

also my card can handle bout anything, even without being OCed, it can handle max resolution and max settings on any halo lvl with 60+ FPS

I've had this problem in the past as well. Tried everything that has been suggested, followed all the leads in MS's knowledgebase, nothing. The only way I resolved it was when I did a fresh install of Windows a few months later. That should be a last option, of course, but that's what it took for me.

  • 08.27.2006 3:56 PM PDT

Actualy i have had this same exact problem with halo ce, where it wont launch, so i did the same exact thing u said, i even reformatted, but still no difference.

interesting.

oh, about the disk, you need to look over the bottom for any "nasty" scratches *or holes* and check the top of the disk and make sure that the top has no holes in it.

  • 08.27.2006 4:55 PM PDT

i looked at it but i dont c anything like that, but last month i let my friends borrow the disk and when he returned it to me it looked like chocolate or something had been spilled on it, so i whiped it off and it looked like new, there r no smears, no scratches, no marks, and no holes.

i think ill just buy a new disk, how much is it anymore? like $10?

  • 08.27.2006 5:03 PM PDT
