First, I would like to apologize for my english, since I'm not american.

I would like to congratulate Midway for the great game, as I played it in my friend's house and this game is amazing. However, in my own PC I'm experiencing some issues. Every time i try to run the game it prompts me a message with the following error:

"ERROR: Cannot initialize OLE"

Anyhow, the game seems to start and work so far as I start a "New Game" Then, it simply freezes on the loading screen, sometimes changing to pitch black. I've tried every solution that the game FAQ suggested, and I still have the problem.

My system specs are:

Windows XP SP2
AMD Athlon 64 +3500 Processor
1GB Corsair RAM
7800GT Nvidia Graphic Card

Anyone has any suggestion? Is 2GB of ram required?

From what I've seen, some people have been able to get the game to work with 1 or 1.5 GB of RAM, but those people are few and far between.

Most of the people with the same problem you are describing say that once they get 2GB of RAM, the game runs smoothly.

Yeah but does that mean the game will only work on 2GB of ram, I got the game running and played it for a few mins before the blank screen come on, even with 1GB of ram it was very smooth.

Ok, made it all the way to Mega Restaurant then close the game. Restart it later and "No Saved Game Data"!!!!! Before this had to replay the first level several times to because of the same error. WTF?!?! After a checkpoint it doesnt seem to be recordign the save point info. Im about done with this. Shame because I like the game.
