Game freezes like a lollipop

Well.......

I gave up and installed XP Pro on the system. Spent the whole day installing updates and all that fun stuff that comes with it.
Installed latest ATI video driver, but game did not load, said "Can not initialize 3d engine"

So I went to a previous driver, which worked.
But.......

I'm back to the same old problem of the game not running during anything but Submarine School.

The thought I'm having is if it has anyting to do with my game being in a seperate hard drive from my XP drive. It's even on a IDE controller card.

I'm gonna try disabling Sound Card and other stuff...then...
I'll put the drive onto a different controller and see if that works.

Question: Anyone else have problems with game installed on seperate drive/partition than system?
