Re: Jazz2 keeps "freezing" my computer

Ever since I got Windows XP, I've had problems playing Jazz2. Sometimes it works perfectly well and sometimes, everything freezes. I can't open and close windows, I can't minimize or maximize and the only program I have control over is the one currently displayed as highlighted on my screen. I can switch programs using alt+tab but that's the only way apart from waiting about 30 seconds or so for everything to unfreeze. What's the matter? Btw, I run JJ2 in window-mode because I do lots of other things as well.

This happens very often to me as well, and so far I haven't been able to fix it (it happens exactly how you describe it, on both of my Windows XP computers). I also play in windowed mode because full screen hurts my eyes on a big monitor.
I think it has something to do with JJ2's title bar, which seems to bypass the windows XP themes (though the problem still happens on themeless mode).
Does anyone else with Windows XP experience this problem?
