medal of honour allied assault hanging when trying to load

i've looked on ea's site but haven't seen anything on this
after i double click on the desktop icon to load and the game begins to load up the screen goes grey, hangs and i receive a windows error report.
The strange thing is that this happens with jedi knight 2 also but with no other games that i've tried ut 2003, the sims.

My sys specs are
p4 1.9
256mb ram
nvidia geforce 2 mx400
windows xp (yesh!!)

 

Does the video card have open gl support??
