Post Graphics startup
I'm having some trouble in SS2, for a few reasons.

Medium graphics -> mission icons are white boxes.

High graphics -> Jumping is screwed, warps have coloured boxes around them.

Vsync in windowed mode option off -> Computer crashes.
High texture quality -> Computer crashes.
Full screen mode -> computer crashes.

Using ATI Radeon 4830. And no I don't have a dmp file, because it doesn't make one.

*EDIT*

I can run high and very high normally. No white boxes. Turns out, they come on medium and low too. It's random.

When I start up SS, it has a black screen when it loads (you see the star with the orange sphere expanding etc). Then you get the opening sound (can't explain what it sounds like, you know what I mean.) During this sound, it'll freeze. The sound will freeze too, at a certain point, together with the screen. This happens for about half a second, then my screens go black, my comp has now officially reset.

When you tried to run on high settings, did it try and create normal maps?

I get it less often than you, but I do get a lot of crashing of my computer.

*EDIT* on first post too.

I can run high and very high normally. No white boxes. Turns out, they come on medium and low too. It's random.

Then you get the opening sound (can't explain what it sounds like, you know what I mean.) During this sound, it'll freeze. The sound will freeze too, at a certain point, together with the screen.

How I get mine to work (about 50% of the time.)

Vsync -> ON
Windowed -> ON
Texture load on start -> ON
High quality texture -> OFF
Use hardware cursor -> ON
Pixel depth -> 32
Reso -> Custom (1220x928)
Graph quality -> High
