    I'm not sure if I'm the only one but when I join a game it joins successfully. But after like 15 seconds it says: PA.exe stopped working. Is there any way I can fix this? Thanks

    Are you playing on EU servers? I had that issue an hour ago... changed to USA servers, and works fine. Maybe there's a problem with the EU servers (or are overloaded)

    I know It's a bit of an old system but when I play against the AI I have no problems.

    Looks like 32-bit OS:
    Code:
    Memory: 3326MB RAM
    Am I right? If yes game crash due to default memory limit, check this link for more details:

    There is workaround that explain how you can increase memory limit for PA.

    Also I can say for sure your video drivers is outdated:
    Code:
     Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS   
    Driver Date/Size: , 0 bytes
    Download and install latest drivers from Nvidia website:

    Also your video card is way too old for this game and it's performance clearly not enough for proper playing.
    Still if you get 64-bit OS (or apply workaround) and new drivers game won't crash on start at least.
