does anyone know why, when I fire at an ANY enemy ship, the game will freeze
for several minutes ( it won't lock-up entirely, but freeze to a complete halt
) then it'll come back and play normally... every thing else work fine, even
though I AM playing it on a minimum spec system  ( P366 - 64 meg RAM - nvidia
MX 100/200 32meg card )...

I've got the game sets down to minimum as far as graphics goes.. ( ie:
everything off or low ).. the movies play fine, and i don't have any MAJOR lag
up until I fire weapons on a ship.. then everything stops for several minutes,
and my HD goes crazy, I'm assuming writing to disk...
