Hey, I just found this site through google, and you guys seem to know what you are doing so maybe you can help me. I installed emperor no problems at all. It was actually quite fast, then when I go to play it it starts up fine, I see the EA symbol ready to kick some harkonnen ass, and then it freezes right there. I try again maybe hitting the esc button right when I see it, but no dice. I am running an Athlon 64 bit processor, Nvidia graphics card, top of the line homemade computer. I did patch the game, but it did not seem to help. Anything help you guys can provide would be much apprecaited.
