When ever I enter the lift after leaving the droid for my first mission,
the computer just stalls.......... even after I have installed the update
and also reinstalled the program.

Athlon XP 2400+
1024Mb RAM
Asus A7N8X-E
Asus Radeon 9600XT

Any ideas ?

HMMMMMMM me either :), i had to do a full reformat and reinstall to
get Doom 3 working for me, somthing was stuffed up with my system.

If you have your vidcard fast writes on turn it off also chnage your
agp from 8 to 4 :), that might help.

You never know.

Well, the crashes have corrupted my system so a full reformat and reinstall
is now necessary. This has really p*ssed me off. I bought an XBOX just to
prevent games crashing my system...why i bought another PC game i do not
know!

Anyway, thanks for the tips...

Cos you can't get PC games on xbox?

Have you tried running chkdsk/scandisk on you drives.
I had a similar problem that turned out to be a HDD developing bad sectors.

I hit a "bad" spot on my second run thru.  When I hit F9 to quick load, it
would error out and crash to the desktop.  Try restarting in another spot,
unless you already did that.
