Battlefield Vietnam: Mission change crashes with image

[leezer3]

Hiya guys,
Couple of problems with the BFV mini-image (Small one, can't get the other to d/l)-
1. When a server changes between missions, the game gets stuck at the Battlefield Vietnam screen, with CPU constantly at 100%.
2. The game randomly crashes at the inital CD check, requiring the dismounting of the image, running the game and finally re-mounting the image & re-running the game.

I'm wondering if a full image would have any effect on this, but would like to know if any other users have had the same problem.
Edit: Obviously, the game works fine with the CD

Cheers
