The short story here, I seem to have hit the memory requirement wall.

Guys, get some skill in closing things in Taskmanager, you might need it.

Finally got a game operational after doing some work in Taskmanager.

This might be the source of my CTD issues.

The jury is still not convinced though. I will need a while more.

Great stuff!
Downloaded in 5 mins (Cable Modem) installed in less.
This looks very nice. I haven't played MBT before but will start with the tutorial and carry on.

Thank you,

I haven't tried the game yet...will do for sure but I'm reading here about several issues the game seems to have wich made me give it a second thought

The issue I'm worried about most is the "celeron procesor" one, because that's my case.

Currently I'm playing the MSDOS version and my PC runs it perfectly well(even though I know this is hard to believe), so, my question is: if my Celeron PC is running the MSDOS version quite well right now, does that cirumstance increase the chance of getting the same performance on the win version? (at least concerning the issues related to the celeron procesor)....or it has nothing to do with it?

I mean...it will be weird and ironical seeing my system running the MSDOS version pretty well but having issues running the win version

The processor is most likely not the culprit. I've been running the game on a C4-1500 for some time and never had any problems.

It seems, though, that there a troubles with multimedia codecs (Windows Media Player Plugins?!) of some sorts. Seemingly the WMP gets to anxious to play the avi and mp3 files the WinSPMBT uses, that both apps cl(r)ash about it ...
