C&C: Generals periodically freezes up for about 10 seconds! help..?

Here's the thing. I just got a deluxe edition combo of C%26amp;C Generals with C%26amp;C: Zero Hour expansion pack.


My computer (by now) far exceeds the minimun specs the game requires (it's an old game right?),


I'm not sure why it's the only game then that freezes up for about 10 seconds at a time, then it goes back to normal for upwards of 20 seconds or so.


I tried everything. WHat could the problem be?





MY specs:


-Pentium 4 2.66Ghz


-Geforce FX 5500 with the latest downloaded Forceware drivers





-512MB DDR 333mhz ram


-on-board audio


-Sony CDRW drive, and LG DVD-RW driver (i tried running the CD on both drives, didn't help)

well Captain Obvious, you are playing a game that is and has been so buggy, I'm surprised it doesn't ship with a can of raid.





CC sux, so do you. And your computer specs you listed aren't impressive at all. The best part of you ran down the crack of your moms asz. to allivate this issue, get out of the 90's, walk to the nearest geographical feature; preferrably a large mountain, lake, or if you live by one of the oceans.





NExt appologize to your anscestors for being such a worthless humaning being, then throw your self down the side, off the top, or into what ever area you are at.





Hope you won't screw that up either, but knowing you you will.

Reply:You need much more ram, because it is a very heavy game and when the ram ends the computer start to use your hard drive as an additional ram that is way slower
