yeah same happens with my original. i installed on my older rooamtes computer, was really laggy but it got past the splash. i have a laptop...w/ a 6800 and 2 gig memory w/updated drivers, well over the min requirements, dunno what it is. thought a crack might fix it but guess not. looks like ill be emailing ea then

[matt_hatter83]

well that is super interesting... can we can some other input from people who have it starting/crashing at startup? this is going to suck when its a problem with drivers or something--i'm using the modified for laptop newest nvidia update, perhaps i should try reverting to manufacturerer set? ACB what driver set are you using?

[Byte-Me]

there has been an issue with some games and directx
just as a check you should make sure you got the latest update for it

i have the latest laptopvideo2go, i tried with my older laptopvideo2go then when it didnt work i switched to newest ones, still didnt work. for direct X, that can be updated through windows update? looks like im up to date.
