does anybody else have this probs i can play freelancer between 15 secs and 30ish mins before i hear i high pitched sound and complete freeze, doesnt just happen with FL, has done it woth bf1942 and mohaa, both of which i have now uninstalled to do unplayability and it looks like FL soon aswell, ive tried to run with "win me" compatability , but no help, ive rolled back gfx driver (installed new driver when installed FL), still no help, and typical ms said "install dx9 now, make games frun smoother faster better quality blah blah", forgot to mention "oh by the way if things start to crash, tough nothing you can do about it"

I think DX9.1 needs to be released...and be released quick. DX9 sucks balls. Sucks that you have this problem.. I have DX9 and can play MOHAA, BF1942, and Freelancer just fine. I'll look over your specs again and see if I see some conflict of some sort.

What video drivers you have installed from NVIDIA??

I have the WHQL 40.72 drivers.
