Just bought the game and installed it. Can't communicate with update server. V3.00

I get "Error: Display Does Not Support 1024x768

It's sat here for 5m now on the loading screen.

How can I fix this?

almost all games work with windows 10, it's just that some files are removed by default and not installed with it,

some need directplay, others need pre requisites that come with a given game installing

if a given game needs something different adding, then most of the time it's printed here

tm.asp?m=3924215

if not i can do another one if needed

my normal guides are in this sort of format

tm.asp?m=4072427

Didn't see that section in Matrix, thanks. I will try this and move my game back to my main PC.

I thought about what the issue might be. I have 2 monitors.

I put the game in a VMWare virtual machine and it works just fine in full screen.
