Hello, I've got a weird and annoying thing with Second Sight.

I've got the game in original. I installed it and played it. When a no-cd was released, I used the no-cd and I finished the game. It worked beautifully and without a glitch with and without the no-cd. Then I uninstalled the game (naturally) and put it on the shelf.

Months passed. My harddrive got fried so I uninstalled Windows XP and also upgraded to Service Pack 2. Then I installed Second Sight again to replay the game. I applied the no-cd. The game starts and the logo's run and right after the logo's it freezes. It freezes when those small square boxes go up on screen, indicating loading. It just freezes and doesn't do anything more.

I naturally thought it was because of the no-cd. So I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it from my original and played it from the original. SAME THING happened! It froze while loading! So I looked around GCW and found another way to bypass protection, the one with the 3 files and SF Nightmare. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled the game followed the instructions. SAME THING. The logo's ran and then the game froze.

It's to late to take the game back or to do anything else about it so I just left it alone, annoyed as hell!

Yesterday, I don't know why I decided to give it another try. So I installed and used the no-cd and started the game up. Same thing, it froze right after the logo's. By this time I was tired as a dog so I fell asleep in front of the computer. When I woke up a few hours later, my computer had gone to the desktop and Second Sight ran in the background. Instead of turning everything off and going to sleep, I clicked the Second Sight tab and... WO AND BEHOLD. I was at the menu! Sound ran, graphics looked good, mouse was smooth. So I set my graphic options, the control and the sound, named a profile and chose to start a new scene... guess what? It FROZE AT THE LOAD!

Now I'm at a loss here, I've never had a game acting like this before. What am I to do? Anyone know?
