This is a wierd problem because.... I got the game 2 days ago and began playing nonstop, now today (third day) I am playing and all of a sudden the screen of my computer goes black and it makes the "clink chink" sound of changing resolutions, however it stays black and no matter what key combos I hit that should revert to the desktop it wont change. Next I tried to restart, unfortunately the button on the front of the computer does nothing... so I pull the plug. My restart button worked fine when I tested it after plugging the computer back in. So what the heck caused this problem to start? Now what is happening is that I can play for anywhere between 30seconds to 3minutes and then the computer will repeat the problem. WHATS GOING ON!?

What is your operating system?
What graphics hardware do you have?
What sound hardware do you have?
Do you have directx 8.1?
Are your graphics/sound drivers up to date?

P3 1.0Ghz
Radeon (not sure on drivers)
Sound Blaster of some sort (not sure on drivers)
Windows 2k Professional
Now that I think about it I will update drivers and see if that yields any results
