Rush Hour and Vista

[Woundweaver 0]

Hi, have installed Rush Hour on my new system for the first time and am getting graphics issues. My system is, 8800gtx Nvidia card (with recent driver) 2 gig ram, quad core processor, Vista.

  I planned city out, ran it and after a few minutes the screen kinda went blocky and then went blank on me. Is this a common problem with Vista (game is old now and not sure how it runs on recent systems) 

 Do i need to download a patch to prevent this from happening ? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. 

 P.S. I originaly put this in the general Discussions forum so please ignore that one, doh!

Hi. Have changed compatibility mode to windows XP service 2, Didable visual themes, disable display scaling on high DPI settings and hve set to administrator. Went into game and still get a black screen after a minute or so of play time ?? Is there a patch or is there something else i can do to fix this ?? Thanks.
