Thanks for the advice Jimmy but I have done all that you have said and still
get the same problem. It seems as if it will not play the DVD-rom after it is
installed. If I leave it after double clicking on the desktop icon, the DVD
drive goes dead, when it un freezes and I double click on my computer the DVD
drive does not show up ( seems strange ) then i have to re-boot to get power
to DVD drive working again. I have the latest updated drivers for my DVD
drive. (DVD disk drive = IDE DVD\CD ROM drive 16x ) I can run other DVD games
and DVD films ok.

Is it something to do with the copy protection maybe ( Is a offical copy
from a good retailer ) ?

If it was the driver why does it install but will not run single player ?

any other help would be brillent if you have any ideas. if not might have to
get money back

Thanks for you help
