Try running SH2 at lower res and/or color depth. Also I found that sometimes that if the crash was due to Direct Draw running out of memory then even a uninstall-reinstall woukd not completely fix the problem. Once it has crashed once due to Direct Draw error then it becomes more vulnerable to the same crash again. Amazingly, in order to be able to again run SH2 at a high res/color depth reliably I had to format and start from scratch. I'm guessing that some file not involved in the SH2 install gets corrupted?
