I just installed medal of honor. During the game the screen just freezes and I need to reset the machine manually. I have tried runing the game in a lower resolution with no change. Running in safe mode also makes no difference.

Has anyone been able to get GTA1 to run smoothly in win2k pro? At any res I run it keeps on slowing down sometimes. Obviously it is not my computer since I run a AthlonXP 1700+ with a Geforce2 and I've tried it with the same results on a P3 600Mhz win2k system.
