OP
anyone?
Do those need the CD to play? I had this problem with DiabloII. It was because my CD-Rom woudl spin down, and the copmputer would freeze until it could spin back up and be checked.

Are you using EAX with a soundblaster live? The current driver sets have made every game I've tried stop for a few seconds periodically during gameplay when EAX is enabled. It's REALLY annoying, I know, but the only workaround I know of is to turn off EAX. Maybe someday creative will release working win2k drivers.....
