I got the same problem with the same computer, except it won't even start when I
try to run the game. My computer acts like it is an old 486 system. ctl+alt+del
will then reset the computer and it works fine then, but still no gpl. So if
anyone knows a solusion it would be great. thanks.

It has to do with the Active Movie player.

Try renaming the AVI file in the GPL folder to -- well a backup name :)
Under the type column, look for 'AVI' or Active Movie.

This should make GPL not find the file and continue on it's merry way.
If this fails -- you can always put the file back because you kept the
backup file.
