    HI there,
    ive had this game for about a year and a half and it ran fine. But about 3 months ago my computer majorly messed up, ended up formating the HDD, re-installing windows XP, got a new graphics card, 128mb Radeon 9700 Pro (the fan stopped on the old one and the whole graphics card melted). Anyway this all came to braking point while playing Chronicles of riddick:efbb. now when i try and play it it plays for about a minute then crashes and an error report message (do you want to send an error report to microsoft etc) comes up. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem?
    Thanks alot for your help!

    the game crashes, screen goes black and one of those error report messages comes up (the ones asking if you want to send an error report to microsoft) sometimes the mouse dissapears, or rather does not appear.
