Bully running slowly or crashing (PC Only)

Last Updated: April 9, 2024

When playing Bully for the PC the game will randomly freeze or crash

To resolve the issue please complete the following steps:

  • Launch Msconfig (Start>Run>Msconfig)

  • Click on the Boot tab. Choose Advanced Options.

  • Change the Maximum Memory setting to something less than 2000 megabytes. 1500 is a good beginning point

  • Restart your computer and launch the game.

  • If you're using XP and seeing the issue, the msconfig will have a Boot.ini tab and then under Advanced, you will need to lower the MAXMEM option.

You should also download the latest patch ver. 1.200 which can be found here:
