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

If it crashes at the initial CD check, then there is a problem with the image, because this crash only happens if the image is bad, which results in a bad key to decrypt the exe with, causing the protection to go to hell (and I wouldn't mind if it stayed their either).

A full image works 100%. I used to use a full image of CD3 that I created but then I downloaded one of the mini-images to save hard drive space.

That latest mini-image doesn't seem to crash between maps like the older one does.

Not to worry- I've just figured why; Securom dont do mini images
I'm surprised a mini-image works at all.

I think battlefield vietnam has safedisc. At least my copy does

Gotta admit I'm now confused as well
Scanning with PID gives me a possible CD check & key check string, but nothing more than that. If it is only a CD & key check, then WTF is the mini (But not full or CD) image crashing on the mission changes.

My head hurts........
