Game will not load?

[Nobir Ris]

Hi

I just installed the game and can't get it to run on my machine ...

Everything installed OK as far as I can tell and I got the desktop icon. However when I launch the game from this - or any other way I know how to - all I get is a quick view of the Loading screen and then about a second's worth of the next screen - XML loading(?).

After that, nothing. It seems the game simply refuses to load?

I have had a look through your forums for some answers but to be honest I got lost in them! There's a LOT of threads isn't there?

My machine specs;

Processor
3.6GHz Intel Pentium 4 560 800MHz FSB LGA 775
Memory
1024MB 533MHz DDR2 RAM
Hard Drive
300GB Serial ATA 7200rpm 16MB Cache
Graphics
ATI X700 Pro 256MB PCI-E
Sound
7.1 8-Channel Capable
Optical Drive
DVD-ROM Drive 8x Dual Layer

I haven't as yet tried any patches and I'm also a computer tech idiot so please be gentle with any replies ...

Thanks in advance for any help.

Well I helped myself in the end with a little more digging for information.
Turns out the 1.09 patch was needed to get the game going and everything runs fine. The 'problem' seemed to be my ATI X700 graphics card.

Hope anynoe else with problems finds as easy a solution as I did ...
