Sorry ilievich.

ilievich thanks, i ll try that

_r.u.s.s. well since you get errors on other games too maybe you d want to reinstall your drivers and direct x then :blink:

ilievich nope doesnt do the trick.

guess i ll have to do without unless you have any more suggestions?!

could it be somethin with my pc, seein as i used to be able to play games (eg Tachyon, Gangsters, Fallout) and now it wont let me play those exact copies?

_r.u.s.s. if there were sounds i would guess you have problems with ddraw but like this i currently have no clue about what can be going on since i have exactly the same os and it works without any problems=/
you can try compatibility mods for older WIN versions when you right click the excutable (play with different settings)

edit: by the way, did you try switching (or from) fullscreen mode to windowed?

ilievich no sounds or anything. also when i use task manager to close it down, it already shows as not responding before i even try and close it...
07-10-2007 04:09 PM
_r.u.s.s. that means the game is running, do you hear clicking sounds when you drag and drop mouse or randomly click on the black screen?

ilievich the icon is a timeglass and it doesnt let me select any of the options.

07-10-2007 04:07 PM
_r.u.s.s. well it should work=S

but anyways, did you try clicking File->New Game? what happened afterwards?
