Since this game is 10 years old, it was hard to find somewhere that still supported it. Maybe you can help.
I've got a kind of crappy laptop, an HP Pavilion dv6000. It's specs are too low to play practically any game less than 5 years old (seriously, the damn thing won't even play Freelancer very well), and I was pleasently surprised to find that at least the in-game portion of this game played well. However, I've had trouble with the video. The game will starts, and the Microsoft Game Studios intro video plays, but then what I can only assume is the
Atomic Games, Inc. video plays, I hear the sound but the screen is completely black. Then the game crashes. I can only even start the game if I press Esc while it's still playing the Microsoft intro. Also, since it crashes before it plays, I can't see the intro video either.
I've tried the patch, and it had no effect. In fact, I can't even find a version marker in the game to confirm what version the game was, or if the patch worked. Plus, this wasn't a problem that was in the buglist that the patch was supposed to fix.
