Just a few comments about BHD:

Good game! lots of fun but there are some down points

1: do a disk defrag Before install
2: make sure you have all updated drivers for your graphics card
3: Get updates for the game immediatly after install

reason being the game would lock up and just freeze my whole system. I know it's not my computer.

What's your setup then? I can't remember the last time XP bluescreened/hardlocked.

Peter's comp has XP Home, 256MB DDR, a P4 2.4 and a Ti4200 64MB and it runs fine on his, my comp can't play it, at least until tomorrow.

I think it's an excellent game, really captures strategy and the pace of modern combat.

How in God's name, with specs like that can any game lock up!? :eek

Oh well, as long as the problem is solved now.
