The game do not freeze during intro video.
It shows it perfectly.

It freezes during the game when there is a "out of body" sequence, if you
know what I mean.

I cannot find the update 327979 on the Microsoft Update pages.

I have reinstalled the game, and before that updated to the latest driver
for my video card.

Problem still not fixed. :-(
