Game keeps crashing

[Guest]

hi
I have reinstalled the game, installed updates on my video, sound and max payne.
As i load it up and play, it crashes under 5min.

I have an 500Mhz AMD-K6
516MB
Voodoo 3 3000 AGP
Creative Sound Blaster SB Audio PCI64v
win 98

i have also tried that dxdiag thing but no luck and other things from the truobleshoot.

I am also having the same problem. After playing for only afew minutes at best the game locks up. I installed the supported drivers for my radeon and the beta and have had no success. I tryed the dxdiag to no avail. I checked throught the readme, the recent faq released and I have had no results with any of the solutions. Here are my specs:

1.13 ghz AMD Athlon
512 133 SDRAM
ATI Radeon 64 DDR
Soundblaster Live! Value
Also using windows 98

I am really disappointed with the game. I would have thought that after being out for so long that the bugs would be ironed out.

Who makes the chipset for your motherboard? Is it VIA? If so, go get updated VIA drivers. The Via/SoundBlaster combination is known to cause problems.

I have solved the problem (I think) with the crashing when you exit...follow these instructions please!When you go to exit the game and it has the stay here sentence and the quit sentence press and hold your mouse on the quit sentence and continue holding it until you exit the whole program and everything is working right.I need feed back on this because it works everytime on my comp and also you need to have the patch.
