I eventually got it into the game by turning off multisampling and lowering the resolution to the default 1024x768 (which looks pretty aweful on my widescreen lcd), but it still crashes "randomly" during gameplay. Even before it crashes, I'm getting ridiculously low frame rates (it runs much slower than Bioshock or Oblivion, for comparison). I'm have
