PC FREEZES when loading operation flashpoint, it loads about 15% and locks up and has to be reset, apart from this it is totally stable, command and conquer works fine,
using a Sapphire 9000 Pro (ati) 128ddr, with latest powered by ati catalyst drivers and direct x 9,
any idea's.
Three reasons:
1) PC too slow to support the game
2) The game, itself, is spoilt
3) The processor is overheating

what is your CPU speed and your amount of RAM? i'm sure this might not be the problem, but it never hurts to ask.
this could also be caused by a really fragmented drive. try to de-frag your drive(s).
