If I play single player campaign mode in my copy of Halo, every time, no matter what difficulty it is on, it force-quits the game. Is this a common problem, or is there a way to fix this?

Doesn't sound right, try re-installing the game?

Does it quit randomly or at a specific location?

Make sure that the Shaders folder is in the Halo folder, if ot copy them over from the CD.

I have the Shaders. It always quits trying to load the second level, I just get a brief glimpse of a planet or something, then it dies (it also quits sometimes when I try to play a multiplayer game, but that doesn't happen as often, so I'm not really worried about that. The multiplayer maps seem to quit at random though)

Halo will crash after the first chapter (ironically, just as you are crash landing on Halo) if you have your settings set incorrectly in the dialog at the beginning of the game.

From the MacSoft site:
When you launch the game, please make sure you select Vertex Shading only. DO NOT select Pixel Shaders.
