ok i'll try to help you. i usually answer by points.
1= update your pc: windows update, driver update, bios update, antivirus update
2= install GIANTS PATCH 1.497F (NOT others). only this one is necessary, since include level6,mappack,bloodpatch,geforce3,and some graphical enhancements. i repeat, YOU NEED ONLY THE 1.497f (you can download form here: http://www.giantswd.org/download.php?of ... h1497F.exe
and you don't need to delete other patches, just install this one.
3= right click on the giants.exe and go on proprietes. Select the COMPATIBILITY tab and put a check on DISABLE VISUAL THEMES and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. click ok and exit.
4= start again the game and tell us what you get.
ps: if you need a good software to clean registry, optimize system, and do a simply and clear system checkup, try Advanced System Care Free form www.iobit.com i'm using it since 2006 and it's good and doesn't do damage to the system.
bye
