I'll play for 20-40 minutes before the hard drive will suddenly become very active for about half-a-minute, freezing the action and sound in progress. After that, the CD-ROM drive gets very active for 10 seconds, then the sound resumes--but I've lost control of the game. It's frozen, and my desktop mouse in active once more. I usually can't ALT-TAB back in; though once when this happened, I was able to to do so, and the executable had simply stopped running. The rest of the time, I had to reboot.
Not sure what could be causing this. It's not my screensaver, as that's set to run after about 8 minutes of inactivity. I've no other TSRs polling the CPU that I can see. Any ideas?
