  • thanks Daveb, it is a laptop.
    Can you get different graphics cards? As you can probably tell a bit out of my depth here. Just trying to fix hubbys pressie.

    I dont think the graphics card (or lack of) is creating the original problem. But even if it did install fine, I also seriously doubt it will be playable due to the graphics bottleneck

    Have you tried installing by right clicking and 'running as admin' first?
    :idea:
  • I'm just trying to install after downloading Nvidia.

    We can play other games though?
    Will give that a try aliEnRIK, thanks
  • tried running as adminastrator but it still says the same. It also come us game.exe has stopped working.

    Downloading Nvidia what?
    If you have an SiS graphics chip, then and Nvidia driver is not going to do anything - except maybe mess up your OS.

    In general with laptop graphics, you are stuck with what you have.
  • oops......
  • So is there no way this will play?
  • Probably not, some games need very high spec PC's to run properly.
  • Oh poo, ah well you live and learn.
    Thanks you guys

    I assume this is the game you have. There are some reviews on there, and graphics is mentioned a few times.

    Just another thought, there are two different versions of this game - PC and MAC - you do have the PC one don't you !
