Anybody else here playing this game? I heard Enemy Territory was supposed to be nominated for an online game of the year award for 2003 so I figured I better download it and check it out. But every time I join a game, it locks my system up after about 3 to 5 minutes of play. Whole system locks, keyboard won't respond, mouse won't respond, and I have to press the reset button on the computer. System specs:
Abit SR7-8x motherboard with P4@2.53GHz, 1 Gig PC2700 DDR, Sound Blaster Audigy 2, Asus manufactured GeForce 4 Ti4200 w/ 8X AGP and 128MB RAM

So, I download the game, install it, patch it up to latest patch level, got latest video drivers from NVidia, latest sound drivers from Creative Labs, and I have DirectX 9b. Played it about 5 minutes the first time and the system locked up. Rebooted, set all game settings to default and tried again. Same thing. One thing I thought of trying (but haven't had a chance to do yet) is turn off fast writes in my BIOS and see if that helps.

Does anybody else who plays this game encounter this sort of problem and if so have you found a solution that works?

Thanks!
