LOTR no cd patch ISSUES...

[Orbitmansion]

I don't know if anyone else is having a problem with firing up LOTR, but I'm enountering a blank black screen !

I installed the game - run the 1.1 update patch, and then copied over the 1.1 no cd patch but when I fire up the game, it just hangs on a blank black screen....

Has anyone else had this problem, and if so are there any explanations/solutions ?

Cheers
