#1 reinstall freelancer. if that dont work then
#2 read the read me see if your card has something listed there that would stop freelancer.
#3 scan your computer for vireses and de frag your hard drive.

Had similar problems with DirectX games running on a nVidia FX 5500 card. After consulting several forums I reverted to the driver from June 2004, i.e. version 61.77 (see http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_61.77.html). Now everything is working fine!

JS.
