Re: New game loaded unable to open

Is your video card compatable with the game?
Correct driver version, etc.
Do you have any unusual features on your system?
What is running in background?

In otherwords, you left us with a "black hole" concerning the details of
your system.

Re: New game loaded unable to open

What video card do you have? Do you have the newest drivers for it? Also, do
you have DX9.1c installed?
