It works perfectly fine Before and During play when im using it but say when i finish the first Level of my game but i wanted to replay the same level, it would get to the menu but when i select the game and it tries to load it would turn black and the application would freeze, it would freeze so much that every key on the keyboard is useless and wont work i cant ALt F4 out of the application and i cant ctrl alt and del my way out of it, i have to restart the computer completely, Now i tried Having Phy End before i rejump back to the start because i thought having the Phy start run twice caused that problem but even with Phy end it still froze, then i tried using Phy Clear and then moving back up to the menu scene still no help, then i made the Phy start appear at the beginning of the app so there would be no way it phy start would run twice, and even when using Phy End the application would still Freeze completely, now imagine each time my failed attempt to get it to work, resulted in a 2-3 minute reboot of the system, really really head frying!! Im running the latest version of Darkbasicpro the latest version of the Direct x , the latest version of PhysX drivers, and im running on software mode, is anyone else having this problem?? please advise.

have you got the comp demos on your system if so have a look at how they restarted the demo to use the gpu instead of software, from what I could see it shows away to reset everything. worth a look.

have you thought about having task manager running before you run the game then if it hangs, you should be able alt tab to task manager and then kill the game that way.

Dark Physics makes any hot drink go cold.

Finally!! ive spent days trying to solve this problem.. and ive found out it has to be some kind of BUG, i swapped the Phy clear with Deleting each objects Rigid body manualy and idividually and now it works perfectly..Phy clear's purpose tho was to clear all phy objects with ease but for me it ends up crashing my game? well at least i solved it before i pulled the other half of my hair out.
