Freelancer - crashing at startup

I haven't played Freelancer a long time and I changed my whole system during
that time.

No, when I start freelancer, the 3 Into movies before the splash-screen and
the menu play. But then, after the splash screen would dissappear, the game
crashes ending in the well-known "send error report" message.

So what can I do? I'm running the latest DirectX (9.0c) and I've updated all
drivers.

My system:

AMD Athlon XP 2500+
Sapphire radeon 9600XT
512MB PC3200 400 RAM
ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe 2.0 (SoundStorm 2 onboard sound with Realtek AC 97 chip)
 
When the crash dialog comes up, click on details or whatever the information
is. It will tell you where it is crashing, such as the name of the game exe
or driver etc.. This might help narrow down the problem.

Do you have the patch for Freelancer?

Do other games work fine?

Do the d3d tests run fine in dxdiag?
 
yeah, patched it doesn't work as well, neither does it with the community
patch. I've got a fresh version now. other games work fine and the DX tests
work fine as well. but I may have tracked down the error, but I don't know
how to fix it:

In the FLspew.txt, it says at the end: ERROR: ArchDB::Get(2946895564) failed
