I've just bought the medieval 2 expansion pack, but I can't get the game to run on my P.C. All the system requirements(I think) are correct. I first taught it was the disk, brought it back,got a new one. Still the same. The icon for the game doesn't even appear in the drive. I've tried an external drive but its the same outcome.
I think its the graphics card, but I'm unsure.
Requirements for the game: (My system) * Windows 2000/XP/Vista (XP) * Celeron 1.5 GHz Pentium 4 of equivalent AMD processor (2.4 GHz recommended) (2.80 GHz Intel Pentium 4) * 512 MB RAM (1.0 GB recommended) (1024 mb ram) * 12.0 GB free hard disk space (40.0 GB)
* 100% DirectX 9.0c compatible 16-bit sound card with latest drivers
* DirectX 9.0c (included) (Directx 9.0) * 128 MB hardware accelerated video card with Shader 1 support and the latest drivers. Must be 100% DirectX 9.0c compatible. (256 MB NVIDIA GeForce 7300, ATI Radeon X1600, or greater recommended)
( (RADEON X300 Series 128mb) * Internet connection required for multiplayer (Broadband) * 1024×768 display resolution (Display resolution 1680*1050)
PSP, all the way from 1.00 to 5.50 GEN D2 - DS Lite w/ M3DS Real (M3 Sakura v1.34)
PS3 3.01 - iPod Touch 2G 16GB Jailbroken - Xbox 360 60GB - PC, Q6600, 3GB DDR2, GTX260 (216) 896MB

Ya. I think the card is basic enough and is only intended to be used for basic computer uses. I've ordered a GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI card which will play most of todays games, but the fact it wont even load and the icon doesn't appear is a mystery?

Yea, it's weird, though once you've got the card, if it still doesn't show, then i'd be puzzled... maybe you haven't set it to place desktop icons when installing?

Yes I know, but the game won't load and the icon doesn't even appear in the D/drive. When I put the game in the disk makes a sound in the drive like it go's around once (trying to load) and then 3 clicks in quick succession???
