hey, i used to have a prob where i could only play for like 5 minutes before the game would lockup on me. the picture would freeze and the sound would loop. my specs are
AMD 750 T-bird
ASUS GF2 MX
SB Live
ASUS A7V Mobo
256 RAM (2x 128, diff brands)
i emailed my friend who's a technical support whiz and he gave me this advice.
1) Update my gfx drivers to the new detonator XP on the nvidia site. This one worked straight away. it runs perfect in 16 bit color but seems to have the same lockup effect in 32 bit color.
2) He thought it was likely to be the SB live giving probs and recommended that i put the SB Live in a diff slot and reinstall the sound drivers. I didn't do this cause (1) worked.
Hope it helps!
