well, i play this game for some years ( i think 3 or 2) and i didn't happened this to me. it happens for 1 or 2 mounths or so since i've installed windows 7 instead of win xp ( i had win xp before) at reinstallation. and i tought that if i put more memory it'll work ( and the pc was laggy too just from oppening the browswer, so i tought that might be the reason). ANd there is nothing diferent since it worked last time and now, exccepting the win 7 and ram memory.
