    I dont understand, its always EA games that have all the problems...... It just randomly crashes mid game and vista says its graphics driver stopped responding. I have an 8800, latest drivers, heat ISNT a problem, WTF EA are you really that stupid to continue your mistakes? Why haven't the monkeys that run the company die yet?

    B.E.T.A. Beta! If you think a company that doesn't have a 95% working game in the beta test is 'dumb' then by all means feel free to program your own video game.

    They should fix it, it`s beta, thats where they test out what and how the game handles, all beta`s crash at one point or another it`s how it goes.

    again a beta is designed to test and break the game in question because it allows the creators to fix the problem before retail...if it still has it at retail it's because you decided to complain to us about it's problems rather than notify them of the bug and how it happened, when it happened, and all that jazz on their official beta forums.

    It's a Beta, that's what happens. The games not yet complete yet and their using this to iron out the bugs.

    I love it when people moan about a game when its a beta.

    this is the problem when any nub is allowed to do testing.  they moan, yet offer no constructive feedback.  GG.

    ROFL ... /agree 100%

    i've actually started to like the direction EA is going in ... especially since they don't seem like they're ready to force anyone to give up on the PC yet.  Except for madden ... which IS FUCKING BOGUS! ... but really i'll admit that's probably my fault more than anything.
    I downloaded every single madden game back in the day ... but it was only because it wasn't worth paying 50 bucks for a roster update to an old ass engine.  They dicked US before they got dicked by piracy.

    Its a beta. The reason they do betas like these is so you can point out problems like this to them so they can fix it before the final product is released.

    its perfectly alright to be a bit angry Errorsyntax, but im guessing just like everyone else here who posted, that its because its only a beta demo, not official demo, and definitely please email the guys at red alert, coz they need to know all these kinds of things, and give them a dxdiag.txt of your machine too, they might be able to pin-point the crashing
