I think the game is set to a screen-resolution which your monitor can't handle.
Is the game working ok with your original cd/dvd, without the crack?

I cant even get my game to work. I bought the game and put in the cd. It installed perfectly, i never made any changes to installation directory, etc...

the game started with the start menu, upon starting a new game, it makes my monitor go black and i get a invalid frequency message. I changed my monitor to various different refresh rates and screen resolutions from 640x480 60htz all the way up to 1024 x 768 75 htz. Never fails to turn my screen black.

Any ideas on how to fix this problem? I have winxp pro w/sp2 and a geoforce 5700 ultra OC with a p4HT 3.2 gig processor and 1 gig pc4000 ddr ram. And a soundblaster audigy 2 card.

All drivers are new and updated. Even with firewalls, anti-viruses disables and adware/spyware progs disables, it still makes my moniter black.

Are my cd's faulty? there are no scratches.

There Tech Support for this game is next to nothing. No help what so ever.
