Exactly what I got, you could try looking in a trouble shooting part of the companies site, personally I solved it by ininstalling it =] UD3D I guess is referring to Direct 3d but you dont get to set any options before this gpf occurs. Maybe try looking around in the folder for a config file or something to see if you have the option of switching to another res and 3d settings.

Is Splinter Cell really coming out on the Gamecube? It will be great if it does.

Indeed it is, in fact it's out on all formats next month I think (or it could be slightly later.) I'm more looking forward to Raven Shield at the moment though, I could just do with a good tactical single player game.

Hmm I really need more ram but I am going to dl it anyway, in fact my download is on 90% as I type this, got it from the blueyonder gaming site though as a lot of mirrors for it have been very slow. I hope it runs okay on my machine as I really dont want to buy the Xbox just for this game as it really looks nice... make that 94% by the way =)
