I just bought this game and I really wanna play but everytime i go to get in the car with Jessica in the beginning it freezes... I've tried running it as the administrator, running it in compatibility mode, and making sure everything was up to date. Still no luck could someone please help I wanna play this game so bad.

Have you tried verifying your game cache files, checked on your memory, and checked your graphic drivers are up to date?

Are you running Vista? I have similar freezes on Fable with my Vista 64-bit and an nVidia 8800 GTS, even with the newest drivers (which are still beta).

Unfortunately some of the hardware manufacturers are having a hard time with the new stuff.

If you're not in vista, ignore this

I tried all of that Sarkie still nothing, and I am using Vista Misterp but mine is 32-bit and I have an Nvidia GeForce 7300GT... anymore ideas? or is this just Vista sucking?

I had better luck with my card and vista after messing around with the game's video settings... lower quality/resolution, disable some effects, until the combination of things happening that caused the freeze stopped (mostly).

You can always install XP

I tryed lowering the settings but still no luck and if it would of worked I probably wouldn't of played it due to it looking almost like a PS1 game... And I would install XP but I'd have to buy it I just bought this PC like two weeks ago and it came with Vista so I dont have a disc for XP so far Vista has messed me up on F.E.A.R., Half-Life 2, Guild Wars, SWAT 4, and Sin Episodes if it is Vista that is messing me up on Sin Ep. that is. It's weird though Sin 1 witch came with my Sin Ep. works just fine and I can play arena mode on Sin Ep. without a problem just the story that freezes of course the part I want to play -_- hopefully I'm not gonna have to wait for some good drivers who knows how long that will take... Ah well if anyone can still give me any ideas please let me know. *curses vista*

I downloaded a new driver today and Sin Ep. seems to be working fine now doesn't crash in that spot anymore. Well I hope this fix lasts!
