Slayer,

Try some of these things first, before we start conjecturing about "what-ifs". If you have a new machine, its unlikely that its a device problem. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Bad cd's DO happen and if that IS the case, the cd can be exchanged for a replacement. You can contact customer support and they will tell you what to do. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Just stay calm, and I'll try to walk you through any steps you are not sure about - with the exception of the XP compatibility routine, as I have no expertise there.

First, before you do anything. Back up copies of saved games, custom portraits and custom sound files if you have any.

Second, download NEW copies of the appropriate patches. Refer to the thread that cyril posted for details about exactly which patches you do need.
