I tried to play without the latest [1006] patch & it works. No freeze at all, but hey! I have to play with the bugs?!

Do you have a legal copy of Red Alert 2? Basically the exploding units/building is a protection.

I have almost the same problem as zaphod2003, but at me it freezes for some seconds when the female voice says something [you know, "building", "structrure garrisoned", etc]. I have XP with SP2, and my RA2 is original. Tried to disable the soundcard, set voice level to zero, set the sound acceleration to none, change the compatability mode but nothing really worked for me. Also I tried Yuri's Revenge, I had to wait aprox. 10 minutes for it to load, than another 10 minutes to start a game, but when I play it freezes for some seconds [randomly]. Any suggestions? My comp: AMD Athlon XP 2000+ / ATi Radeon 9600xt / 512DDR / TerraTec Aureon 5.1 Fun. I have the latest drivers.
