Spore crashes upon game startup Nevermind, I got it working! I just never updated the patch I guess, heh.
Considering you're playing on a Celeron cpu which is one of the worst cpu's to game on next to a AMD Sempron cpu and the fact you only have half a GB of RAM I'm not surprised it's not working. Windows XP needs at the bare minimum 512 MB of ram to be able to work at a decent pace. You're not even showing that much in the dxdiag so I'm guessing you were either running several programs at once or you've got something running that sucking up a bit of your memory resources. Plus the integrated graphics chip doesn't help matters either. Is this a laptop also? You say "again" does this mean it worked once before?
