Your not using Vista are you? I don't think Vista is very friendly towards XP games, so much for backwards compatibility. :rolleyes:

cheers

When I installed Vista I found that windows versions of MBT and WW2 would lock up or not run at all. However, as soon as I installed updated ATI drivers the games ran just fine. And I was able to run in full screen mode too.

Of course, the next day I took Vista off because a bunch of my other programs wouldn't run with it, but SP would.

So check and see if there are updated video driver and catalyst for your video card.
