Have you installed the 1.2 patch?
Because without patch you'll just get a black screen. ;)

yeah hes right you need to get a patch v 1.2 that would be good.

[alaajounedy]

i have tried 1.2 patch put it did not work is there any thing else i can do

Is there something else you are not telling us? Your system seems to be quite capable of running the game. Is there an error message you are getting? Are you not telling it to run under a different OS? There has gotta be something

[KamisoriX]

maybe you're using a "special" exe?

[alaajounedy]

i start the game normal but when the main manu shows up and
i chose new game the game crach and i am not using any spicial exe
and i have some old game saves it load normal but it will crach agin
if change the area(like entering a town)

Did you try setting the compatibility mode to an older OS?

[alaajounedy]

and i also tried it on vista
