Problem with Freespace 2

Okay so I have a bit of a problem with the game, Freespace 2 which I just purchased off of GOG.com. It seems to be a hardware problem but I'll describe it in detail.
The game crashes in the mission where you are flying through a nebula for the first time. The screen turns yellow and though the sound still plays, the screen stays frozen and won't change. I can get past this level. So far I've run it in compatibility mode and played around with detail settings to no avail.
I'm using a Gforce 6800 GTS 540mb with a dual core processor and 2gigs of ram. It's Windows XP professional sp3.
Any advice would be great.

You could try updating drivers, but that video card came out years after the game so I doubt that's the problem. It could be GOG's fault, I had BG2 just recently (released about the same time) from gametap, and ordered it from amazon upon deciding I didn't like gametap. I had some graphical hiccups in the downloaded version that weren't present in the boxed copy I bought
