OK, so centy and I have similar specs (and both have the disappearing world bug (but only in one place).

My spec is:
Athlon 64 3700+ 2.2Ghz (centy's will be similar to 2.2)
8500GT 512mb
2gb ram
XP

Interesting point here. Though I still doubt it has to do with processor performance, because if it would be entirely due to processor performance it would happen in many places (not just one spot on the entire map).
I will set the graphics to lowest res & settings, with no traffic and see if there is a difference, but I suspect not. Then try in the opposite direction - if the processor is to blame the same problem should occur elsewhere.

I do note with interest however, the min req spec is unbalanced - CPU needs 2.4Ghz (which many current pc's fail to match), yet the rest of the min reqs are very, very low - 1gb RAM, and a 5700 nvidia! That is like (at least) 4 year old tech. Very bizarre.

But as I say - my pc works completely fine with it, unless I drive from Lebec to LA. Then it fails.

However, I've not reported endless bugs - I've reported one. I've also said that the game works fine (with traffic etc) with the exception of the one fault with the missing world (in one spot on the map). That one wrecks the game. I do not believe that this error is caused by the processor. Is there a techie around who could explain why this would happen?

NB: There were no recommended specs on the box.
