I installed CC2 Bridge too far onto my laptop and when i try to open it i get the error message 'Cannot open file for streaming'... my laptop has windows XP on it and all the system specs are easily enough to run the game. I'm no good at understanding this stuff can someone please help me? if there is a download or patch to make it work I'd appreciate very much. Danke schon yall

try compatibility mode (right click on cc2.exe) then set win 95 or 98 ...
should work...

Nice idea. unfortunatly it didnt work Sad It works fine on my pc with windows XP on it. it just keeps saying 'unable to open file for streaming' when i open, i tried running it in 256 colours and disabling all the extra options on that compatibility window. i don't know if i can change anything to make it work. dont even know what streaming is?!

This is strange, all I can think of is try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it.

Yeah I agree, try reinstalling it. If you did a Full install last time (with videos, etc) then maybe try the typical or smaller install this time, or vice versa. Never heard of this prob before tho, so good luck.

Oh for fucks sake with you. Read the damn Manual first and after that the FAQ. Read them both and you'll understand, that what is the problem. Help yourself, that's what i do.

Try this:

Hold control when starting up the game. The options dialogue should show up "Disable videos". Hit ok. Start the game.
