Try going on to the programs directory and running it from there.

Make sure your firewall allows it through I bought the game cheaply @ retail last week it came with a big warning about disabling all AV & Firewall software BEFORE installing perhaps something blocked it on your PC.

@opethdisciple - installed the game onto D: drive and tried all exe files there

@AWPC - got kapersky and disabled protection but still no luck

Have you tried taking out then putting the DVD in the drive again and waiting for the autorun - it may need to run the 'launcher' from the DVD, which then runs the main program from hard drive.

Not got it to check I'm afraid, so may not work.

Got it working, happen to look at compatibility mode and it was set to windows 98. Changed it to windows 7 and bingo it worked. Weird if u ask me but thanks all the same guys
