At frequent intervals my game just stops.The music becomes a drone or a single note repeated over and over again,I lose control of the mouse and keyboard and I cannot even close the game down.All I can do is restart my computer and this has already caused an error bad enough to require me to re-install windows!!!.
I am running the unpatched version of the game(as reccomended).I have installed DirectX 7.0 off the game disk and I have applied the tip of reducing graphic acceleration to none.
I am running in Windows 98 and I have:
An Abit KG7 motherboard
Nvidia(sparkle)GeForce3 Ti200 Graphics card
Athlon 1.8 GHz CPU
Soundblaster Platinum soundcard
100Gb(7200RPM) hard disk
Toshiba CD/DVD
DDR 512MB RAM.
Please can someone solve this problem for me as it is becoming very frustrating!!!
