Sounds like the problem I've described in several other topics, if it involves the turboGL and actually being in a game when it freezes. Look at the other Q3 posts for a description of my problem- I'm not gonna repeat it here (since I've posted it 3 or 4 times already).

elie,
what are some of your other specs on the computer?
i am having the same problem but in several other games also. i have:
p2 400
128mb
g400tv

i removed my soundcard and now it runs for about 10 seconds before it crashes. does anyone know why this is? in fact i have removed all my cards and the only one left is my marvel. i have to set the agp aperature to 256 or else my computer will not boot up. sounds like i have a bad video card but dvd and resolution/color work fine. tv tuner and video in are same as game problems.
