I'm running Win XP Pro. When the game goes to load level 2, XP pops up a window saying that the prog has caused an error and must close, sending me back to the desktop. It has done this every time I have tried to enter the area that triggers the level load.
Level 1 runs fine as well as multiplayer.
My Specs:
Athlon 1.33 Mhz
Asus NForce Mobo
512 PC2100 DDR Ram
Gainward Geforce 2 Ti450 64 DDR Ram
Maxtor 40gig 5400 HD
I'm having the same problem. After the scene in Mon Mothma's office, the stats screen comes up, looks like it's loading the next section, and then bam, back to the desktop. The console popped up and here's what was in it:

That last line was also blinking in red at the top of the console.
My system:
550 PIII
ATI Rage Fury
Win XP
128 MB RAM
Success -- I tried reinstalling (leaving my saved games and settings though) and now it's working. Weird...
Unfortunately, when I get back to the desktop, the console is gone so I can't see anything that might have come up in it.
Also, when I hit the desktop, my wallpaper is gone and the brightness has been raised several degrees.
Show Desktop restores my background but I have to reset my brightness levels manually (easy through Powerstrip) to correct the over-brightness.
I have the same pb, but with a different map, it is the stealth map ... and my pb only occurs when i try to hide behind a box (which is a have-to...)
I uninstalled the game (keeping my saves and settings), defrag'ed my harddrive and reinstalled it. I still have the same problem.
I was able to solve my problem by starting the game in safe mode, loading my save-game, letting the level load, and then manually restoring my settings.
I haven't loaded up any post-level 1 saves or gotten to another level load since I "fixed" things so I don't know if this is a one time bug or whether I will have to do this same procedure each time I get to a level load.
