Are you using Steam with the latest version of ESF? (1.2.3)

yep. and it runs on software. because if i run in opengl or d3d the game freezes my comp and i can only unfreeze by cutting the power

Software mode causes problems. Update your drivers and use another video mode.

ok ill give it ago. thanks.
