Best things I can think of currently you might have tried already, but here's a list anyway:
run a memory test (enable the full test in the BIOS or with a program like Norton Diagnostics),
run scandisk on your harddisk,
try to set the Windows swapfile to 300 MB,
disable all sound in the game,
uninstall and reinstall directX (you can check your installation with C:\Program Files\DIRECTX\SETUP\DxDiag),
make sure you've closed all unnecessary programs in the background,
disable the screensaver (a long shot).
