Windows 7: 32 Bit
Video: Nvidia GeForce 9500GT
Processor: Core 2 Quad, 2.4 GHZ
Ram: 4 GB

Terrain: high
Textures: high
Geometry: high
Effects: high
Lighting: medium
dynamic shadows: medium
dynamic lighting: medium
anti aliasing: 2x
texture filtering: medium


Hoping this is the detail you were looking for.

[edit]
Okay I did some testing. it seems like the map doesn't want to launch when I have textures set to HIGH. When I turned them down to medium, it launched fine.

Any reason why this would happen on this one map and none of the others?

Might be a driver issue with nVidia. I had that problem on most maps before I had textures on high.. but after I upgraded my computer it could run all maps on high texture settings..

But for peopels having CTDs randomly while playing/loading should set textures to medium. Not run pr in comability mode, and run it as admin if the game dont start...
