Hello evereybody!

I'm having massive problems with Bioshock 2 under Windows XP SP3 via Bootcamp.

My machine is a 15" mbp, 2,5 ghz C2D, 4gb ram, 512 mb NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, XP SP3 with all the updates.

Multiplayer runs just fine without any issues, but singleplayer is giving me headaches. At first I could not start it at all, I got the "unexpectedly quit" message right after launch. A tip from a friend brought a sollution, when running the game in Windows 2000 compatibility mode it launches, for whatever reasons. But the intro video freezes within seconds and after a few minutes ingame it crashes again.

Normally I don't have such issues, I just played through Mass Effect 2 with no problems & like I said, multiplayer works just fine, so I doubt it has anything to do with over heating or something like that. I also have smc fan controll running.

Thanks for any help or input.
