Wow, this guy had his computer for 2 1/2 years and NEVER did a defrag? I'd be suprised if it didn't take him five minutes just to load Windows. You should defrag your hard drive at least every two months. I defrag mine on the first of every month. The more often you do it, the less time it takes.
Now, for what's his face who didn't defrag...
DEFRAG.
Then, uninstall Halo Combat Evolved completely from your computer. That means deleting the folders and registry entries as well. Then do a complete reinstall, and a manual patch to v1.07. That's the only advice I can give you since you didn't post your specs. And if that doesn't work, then I guess you're S.O.L.
