When the C&C RA2 Yuri's Revenge main menu screen & skirmish options screen are used then the game starts to freeze up. I usually have to use "ctrl", "alt" & "del" keys a few times to exit out. I've tried to uninstall then reinstall it as well as reload it, and I've checked to see if it needed to be updated. Still can't figure it out though, if any one has any idea what's wrong I would really appreciate the help.
icedspring! <3 Absolutely spot on dude! :D Thank you for the quick easy fix!
Was crashing on the end of mission videos meaning no progress at all, but this worked a treat!
Best Win 10 solution 🙂
Setting VideoBackBuffer=no worked for me as well - thanks!
As a bonus you can also set the resolution to full hd: ScreenWidth=1920 and ScreenHeight=1080
The patch worked great; followed these steps. Thanks bunches!!! No more saving the game every couple of minutes to keep level progress after a total screen and command freeze.
Wow. What a patch. Thanks.

My solution was:
1. go find the .ini files for both RA2 and the Yuri's Revenge in your game file, i.e. the RA2.INI and the RA2MD.INI, open it,
2. add "VideoBackBuffer=no" below the "[Video]" section to both files,
3. save the file and restart the game.
ofc you would want to run the game in compatbililty mode. I use XPSP3 for my WIN10 system.
This trick resolved the freezing issue..thanks.
i use this method but all my build is to fast can't really play at all
