CTD on Sound Contacts

Ok experienced Kaluens...here's a problem:

After running into overheating problems on my laptop, I fired up the old desktop (that I almost never use) and loaded SHIII on there. All goes fine right up until I pick up a sound contact. The message bar at the bottom of the screen pops up "Sound Contact!" or what have you, and then I get a CTD. Happens every time like clockwork. Otherwise the game runs without a hitch. My system specs follow:

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ (1.8 Ghz)
1 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 6200
Windows 7

Should be plenty of computer for this game, so I'm not sure where the problem is. I did a quick forum search but didn't come up with anything similar. Anyone ever heard of this type of problem before?
