Whenever I play brood wars I get really far into it and if I need to press the main menu for anything it crashed without a message or anything! WHAT THE (Censored)

you have to hold shift down while you're doing it.

What does holding shift down do?

Hi there! I see you are a new member so I would like to refer you to the welcome forum so you can introduce yourself: http://www.staredit.net/forums/40/

Now on to your problem, could you be a little more specific about why your game is crashing? From what i gathered it crashes when you open the menu but i never heard of that happening before so I think you should restate it.

Thanks fr the nice reply, But all that I can really say is that sometimes I get really far into a battle and I move my mouse down to the menu button and it crashes

So you just click on the menu button when it happens? Thats odd... You should try CAFGs solution and see if that works since I've never had it happen to me. You could always try reinstalling the game and see if that helps

I click on it duh xD

From my point of view, I'm thinking something didn't go right during installation...

Either that, or it could be an ingame problem, check this thread:
