Ok, now I have read some of the other threads dealing with mechs jumping into the air when they come close to APCs/Tanks. Well, If only I were so lucky. When I get close to an APC/Tank, the game will freeze for about 2 seconds,then release me right back to the desktop with absoloutely no error or dialog. I have the latest patch (1.2), I have tried running it in compatability mode with Win98,2k, and 95,with no fix.I am running XP with no updates installed. Has anyone else run into this problem and has been able to sucessfully fix it?

I have exactly the same problem. I have Mechwarrior 3 Gold Edition. Could someone please help?

Same problem re MechWarrior 3 'cept get error message on load "known compatibility problem" which leads to a dead MicroSoft link help!

*sigh*

I guess I'll just have to avoid all vehicles, pretend they're carrrying nukes or sumthin', take em out at a distance, as there don't seem to be any other issues.
