I just bought H&D2 and installed it on my computer

Installation when without a hitch.

When I try to start the game I get an hourgalss for about 2 second then nothing happens.

I downloaded all patches up to 1.12

Still the same thing

If I run the set up that works (I doi get the screen to change the settings ) but no matter what I chose I still cannot start the game.

I am running XP pro

I did turn off my anti virus just in case

Any one can help?

Thanks in adavance

Try updating your graphics drivers (or changing them to older ones), maybe try updating direct-x. My friend says that sometimes having your resolution set incorrectly can do the issue you stated.

I have programs just not run before in XP, normally I just alt-ctrl-del and end task the program and re-start it. Never had this problem with H&D2 though.

Thank you,

I will try those suggestions .

If anything works I will post to say so

Make sure you installed the correct patch for your game too. There is a patch for H&D2 and a diferent one for those who have Sabre Squadron too (smaller).
