add the exe of the game to your Anti Virus and firewall program, to make sure to check the logs of these to see if it was one of them which was to blame.

run the game from a admin account and use full admin permissions.

please make sure all game pre requisite are installed with the game, even if you think or fully know there are already installed, it will only over write, and it may be that you have a older or newer version of these where as the game in question may need a certain version.

How to get a DxDiag report file:

1. Click on "START" (on Windows 8 press “Windows key” and the “R” key at the same time)
2. Click "run" (skip this step on Windows 8)
3. Type in "dxdiag" and click "OK"
4. Check through the tabs and perform all tests
5. Click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice

We prefer that DxDiag files be posted as message attachments rather than pasted into the body of the post.

In addition to the posts above, please make sure you are installing the game in the default path.

Window's 10 tends to like the default location.

Thanks for all your replies , to be honest I am not very good with the workings of computers . But I did the DxDiag test and everything was fine , Berto I have had the game for about 12 years ..lol actually 3 different copies everything else on your screen shot works when I click it ... apart from the games sadly . I have a brand new computer/copy of game . I am not sure what exe means ? and didn't really understand your reply Jason but , I will try again , thanks again all for your prompt replies . happy new year and al that malarkey :)

Did you get this working? To be honest I can't quite figure out from what you wrote what your problem is / was.
