Did you really need a video to show that?
What are your specs and drivers? Antivirus software?

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Are you playing on Vista or XP?

Is it the same computer? Does the Pentium processor have the same socket type as the Celeron one?

Also, did you change anything else?

Well, all I can suggest is getting some new RAM.

You also might want to reinstall Windows since you put in a new processor.

Do you have the latest drivers for your video card?

Also, do you own the full version or just the trial?

Have you tried reinstalling the trial and/or full game?

Try clicking a lot, like really fast when the game is up. Seriously, I believe this helped someone ages ago.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Maybe you could run it with -safemode. Right click the Halo shortcut and go to Properties. In the Target line after "halo.exe" add -safemode
