Updated to windows 7 from vista and now my SC freezes randomly in a game. Anyone else get this?
Doesn't freeze if i'm playing in windowed mode. Apparently it's due to a dual core processor and if i disable it in the bios then the problem should go away.
But if i set the affinity for starcrat.exe to one core, and enable cpu throttling it still freezes.
I've played with the compatibility settings to death, anyone have a solution?

Oh and i'm on 64-bit

Have you tried running it with the XP virtual machine?

apparently my processor doesn't support virtualization, which is weird because my roommate has the exact same laptop (albeit a few differences) and his does.

but i dont want to run it in a virtual machine, and also other people who have tried it still claim that it crashes

I have the same problem here, I haven't found a fix yet but it seems reinstalling the game may have fixed it.
