Please help!

I, too am a victim of endless game crashes. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when or why the program shuts down. The only time that I know it crashes is when I try to play a game. It crashes as soon as I try to play. Otherwise, it crashes randomly, even if I'm not moving the mouse or anything. I get the message that "ootp5.exe is generating errors and will be shut down." I use the following:

Windows 2000 Professional 5.00.2195 Service Pack 2
AMD Athlon XP 2000+ CPU
228,708kb RAM
nVidia nForce sound card
nVidia Geforce 2 video
Direct X 9.1a

Per other posts I've seen on the board, I've downloaded the most recent driver updates and the most recent version of directX.

Not to sound like a jerk, but I'm severely disappointed (and judging by the number of posts on this board, not alone) that this game is causing so many problems. I have been addicted to STB2003 for almost a year and couldn't wait to purchase this game. I hope that someone can get this fixed.
