[solved]Game Freeze. Huge hpl.log *SPOILERS*

[Urkle]

What is your game configuration? I see you have it configured as 1024x768. and you are running an a slower speed processor. My guess is your Processor is just too slow. Duron's are not for gaming (just like celerons are not for gaming). Due to the fact that the duron has a REALLY small amount of L2 cache it can lag quite a bit. Also as you are using your onboard AC97 sound card, which depends entirely on the host CPU, that is most likely the cause for the sound issues. Try running at a lower Resolution (800x600) and turning off post effects and see if that helps any.
