Good evening
I am not able to pick up the Sniper Rifle without Halo crashing. Everytime I pick it up, maybe a few clicks, then BLACK screen. I have to hard reset my system. I really have no other problem with Halo, except there could be more stuff to shoot.

Almost positive that the file for it is corrupted. Reinstall Halo, but back up your game files. You pc's stats are pretty darn good, so it's definately not those.

Yes, this can mess it up a lot (did it with an ak47 model).

Hey gunner, you're getting challenged to 1v1 against that snob who thinks he's better than you because he's a higher level...kick his butt!

Thank you for getting back to me. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I saved game files prior. No luck. I have been working on this over one week. Still no Sniper Rifle. I have used the Sniper on other systems. It is a nice tool.

When did you get the system? When was your last reformat?

I reformat my drives every half year to keep them spiffy and defrag at least once a week.

With XP you can recover your drive so that it keeps all your old files.
