Game Crashes and flashing screens

[Nerfix]

The game crashes so much it's practicaly unplayable...

It happens both on windowed and fullscreen mode and quite often in deployment mode, though I have seen the game irritatingly often crash mid-game.

Read through all the posts in this thread and the "XP sound problems thread" and you should find the solution to your problem. The game is stable on 99% of the systems. You don't tell us what your OS is or your graphics card or if you are running it DirectX or GDI mode or even if you've tried any changes so we cannot help you beyond suggesting you read these threads to discover the solution. The first step would be press Start then Run then type DXDiag and see if there is a problem with Dx on your machine. Then check to see that you are using the most up to date driver for your graphics card. Those two suggestions have helped a lot of people get the game running

I had the game crash on my computer at home, but I swapped out the MP3's for WAV's and it's been rock solid ever since.

On another note, loaded the game onto my laptop and never had the game so much as flicker.
