Probably got some dodgy spyware/virus on that disk too, probably hammering the web as we speak....

Thanks mate, and there was me expecting you of all people to help!!!!

I dunno mate, if it was a pukka copy you could check the forums etc, in fact it might be worth a Google as it could be a known fault, no idea if you'll be able to patch it if is that though not being legit etc.

Tried a few forums already, but think it's too new

You might be better of cutting your losses and buying an original. The thing could crash further on into the game. Not only will you wasted a massive 77p but probably 2 weeks of your life (estimate £4.62?????) Dont say I warned ya.

Try playing it sober. :lol:

first of all try setting all the graphics as low as they will possibly go or safe mode if there is one
reinstall latest drivers and direct x

Ah, that one might be the job
