i have the same problem, the game crashes as soon as i get in. when i alt-tab to see if it is not responding there is a window that says,
unhandled exception:c0000005
at adress: 0042196e
my direct x, sound, and video drivers are up to date, my video card is a geforce 2 mx. the os i'm running is windows xp.
EDIT: "i found out that it crashes because of the graphics on the mouse pointer ,the stuff that oozes down, when the ooze gets to the bottom of the screen it freezes the game you just have to be quick if you want to play"
