Up until about a month ago, Tropico 1 ran perfectly, no crashes, no issues.
Now, however, I'm lucky to get it to run for more than 10 minutes. I've tried a lot of stuff you guys have suggested including:
1. Not running Google Chrome at the same time. Sometimes I even close out all the background processes i.e. extensions.
2. Lowering the in-game settings like graphics and whatnot.
3. Messing with the Compatibility processes. I've gone all the way down to Windows Vista (service pack 2), but I'm not sure if going older would be a problem?
And yet, nothing.
Should I re-install? Would that help?
anyone?
EDIT: So I reinstalled, lowered the compatibility to 98/ME (as the game came out in 2001), and ran as Administrator and it's still crashing like crazy.
