Hey all, hopefully this is just a small problem. I have this game called Keepsake, and it runs fine, no problems at all... until I exit the game. When I go to the menu and click Quit, the game exits and the computer reboots befor I even get back to the desktop. All my other games work fine, no problems. This only happens when I play Keepsake. I went online and downloaded a patch (version 1.6), but that did nothing to help me. Any ideas or suggestions are most appreciated.

Hmmm.. Either I'm the only one with this problem or I'm the only one playing Keepsake. :thumbsup:

Try updating your video driver. See if that helps.

Video driver is up to date. This is weird and confusing. I can't understand why this would happen only on this game.

Funny how we forget to try the simplest things some times.. I'll try that and get back to you.

Alas, there is no resolution option. I did get this error message when starting up the game once...

s:\wicked\libws\include\wsl\sltcl1.h(138):

TCL slang found an error: Error message: invalid command name.

followed by 34 lines of question marks.

..and the plot thickens...

How about your normal windows resolution? If you change to a lower setting and try the game is it still doing it?

My res is usually at 1600x1200. The game runs at 1024x768, I've tried switching my res to every other size option, all to no avail. But now I can't even start the game. I click the program and I get;

\wicked\keepsake\src\lib\config.cpp(87):
TCL slang found an error in file config.tcl
Error message: Invalid Command name
followed by 2 rows of question marks then "Line number 29"

when I click OK in that message, I get this one..

*unhandled exception:
*Address: 00B0C105, Flags: 0 Exception Record: 00000000
*Code: The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access.

:thumbsup:

I'm lost.
