I bought Halo over the holiday weekend, and it absolutely ROCKS! However, periodically (on rare occasion), it says "Loading. Please Wait" in the upper left corner and the game play halts for maybe a half second. Usually happens when I'm running down a hallway or something similar. I've got a smokin' Dell box, 2.4gig processor, but only 256meg of RAM. It's upgradable to 1gig of RAM. Is the lack of RAM causing this? It's a very minor issue, just thought I'd ask some of you who have more gaming experience with PC's than I do. This is my first PC game, btw. Thanks.
Also, when I shut the game down, I can hear the processor grinding away and the PC is slow to react compared to other times until it gets finished doing whatever it is it does. Then it's back to smokin' fast again. Is this also a RAM issue? Keep in mind, I capture video into huge AVi files and do all my editing on this box and it seems to chug right along, with the occasional stall. RAM? More RAM?!
