Freezing everytime

When you get to just the loading part, game freezes. Anyone else having this problem?

Give us some more information on what is happening. What are you spec to play the game? Have you been able to play at all?

Yes we need a little more to go on other than "it doesent work".

Have you tried waiting it out ? At times I have to wait 2 to 5 minutes before I get the "please wait" screen. Then its another few minutes.

As a side note this is a common problem with the bearing tool mod applied.

I had this happen to me and it was because my gfx card didn't support Shader 2.0. So I had to buy a new one. Of course, you might have different problems....

Windows XP Professional
SP2
Genuine Intel(R) CPU
T2400 @ 1.83GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 1022MB RAM
GeForce Go 7800
SigmaTel Audio

Just installed it so haven't changed nothing. I haven't tried waiting it out yet. But it locks my PC up sometimes.

Try uninstalling the game and reinstalling it. Might be something bad happened
in the first install....

Is it locking during the initial loading or loading a saved career ?
Have you updated video and sound drivers.
Sound cards have been notorious for causing lockups... ever since dos days.

RDmem3,
Welcome Aboard, I have the exact same problem, but I believe mine is in the video card.....I believe yours is better. Do you have SH3, and were you able to run that without problems?
