Game freeze when the codemasters logo shows up

[Cyper 18]

I ordered Operation Flashpoint game of the year edition a few days ago, and I got it now. I played it a little bit, installed the latest patch, and then I got to eat dinner.

When I returned, and started the game agian, the game freeze when the Codemasters logo shows up. All the time. It's not responding at all! What the hell can I do to solve it?!

Hmm, never encountered this.

Is there any error dialog poping up in the background, which blocks the application? Try ALT+Tab back to windows and see if there's any.

And you might just disable the intro/splash screens by using the startup parameter -nosplash

I bet that's the first thing everybody (who knows it) does after installing OFP.
