My system specs are

Intel Q6600
4GB XMS Corsair Ram
Windows XP Pro SP3
Nvidia Gforce 8800 GTS with latest Driver

I have installed Battlefield Vietnam and installed all the latest Patches to 1.2.

I can load into the game just fine at blazing speed. But after playing for about 1 minute, the game just freezes and I have to do a hard reboot.

Any ideas on this issue?

Thanks :ouch:

As I remember battlefield vietnam was always pretty buggy so it might just be the game . But if you have Vista on the machine it could be a backwards compatibility issue. Try right clicking on the .exe and go to properties and then click on the compatibility tab and select run in XP compatibility mode.

But it was such an awesome game, every shooter needs to give you the option of playin tunes as you fly into battle!

hey mate,
i own a copy of battlefield vietnam and it did freeze ALOT when i first
got it and sometimes the screen just locked for about 10 mins!!
then i fixed it by simply adjusting my firewall so it wouldnt blok it from
connecting...so if your havin problems try your firewall as it mite be blocking batlefield
from reading the the game disk. Catcha, JORDZ hope it helped
;)
