On my desktop machine i have no problems running OOTP on windows 98. The issue is my laptop with XP. I think the problem is the advanced power management which detects CPU heating and locks the computer up (turns the screen off) and spins the drive down. Others on this board have noted the same problem.

Unless this is fixed, this game will be difficult for laptop users, not just because of heating but because of battery consumption. Oh well..back to DMB on my laptop....
