Hi, you should try swapping your graphics card with another AGP card to see if it is the cause. If that doesnt work you should remove one of the RAM sticks and run something like prime95 or burnintest, and then run the same on the other stick.

I believe there is a patch out already so try that first. Also, I never go into my PC to change/remove/replace anything if it is only a single game that freezes/causes crashes.
