Serious Issues on Main Menu - Cannot Play

[Recoup]

Hey everyone,

I'm having a major issue with the latest patch. After updating and installing it (I hadn't played CoH in a month or two) I start the game up and begin noticing after a few seconds my menu become slower and slower. Finally the menu stops responding to me altogether - the game locks up and I am unable to even Ctrl+Alt+Del in order to get out of it. I have to hard restart my computer.

I've tried reinstalling the mod but I get the same issues even when doing a fresh install. My lady installed the patch with no issues but my computer doesn't seem to like it. Keep in mind I ran the previous edition of the mod without any issues, it's only now that it seems to dislike the game.

Tales of Valor still runs smoothly and without error on it's own - only the Eastern Front mod causes the game to become so slow that it locks up.

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit

I have experienced a similar issue. I honestly do not recall if vCoH worked. I have not managed to find a solution. The only 'fix' I have found is to wait it out; eventually the problem should go away.

Have you tried increasing your virtual memory?

I reinstalled Company of Heroes and now it works.

Ok, I'm going to lock this then . Glad to hear you fixed your issue .

Hate to say it but the issue has returned. I'm unsure what the cause is at this point.

Have you modified the default configuration of Catalyst Control Center?

Are you using the last version of the AMD drivers?

Have you installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable for (x64)?

Have you installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable for (x64)?

Are you using an antivirus in your PC? Are you sure your PC is not infected with any kind of malware?

Have you tried to close Relic Downloader to see if it works better?

Have you modified the sound options for EF/CoH?

And it went away again...

It seems to just show up when it feels like bothering me. I have no idea why it comes and goes like this.

I resorted back to the pre-patched version and have had no problems to date.
