Just wondering if there is a trend to crashes on one platform more than the other?

I've got an ATI HD3850, when I first started Stranglehold was ok, playing 16x12 with no issues apart from occassional freezes on cut scenes, then on the level with the helicopter outside the Russian's place in San Francisco (or Chicago? can't remember where now), I died on that level. Then after that it would crash almost straight away. I started the game again with crashes now at the start, after dropping to 1280x1024 most of the problem went away, however I'm back to the same level again, with the helicopter, and when I shoot away the chairs I get an error and my computer restarts.

Nothing else crashes on my computer so kind of disappointed, but wondering if an Nvidia card might suit Stranglehold better.

I dunno if a new video card will help. Stranglehold was actually "optimized" for ATI cards. Maybe you save got corrupted?
