Have you tried the CD in a different computer? Or have you tried a different CD-rom in that computer? |

Are you using an old CD-drive on your PC? Some game CDs are designed for faster CD-drives and might not work on older drives. I know, I had that problem cos I upgrade my motherboard but not my drives. > Also on some other games they run but sometimes they > switch back to the desktop This could be cause by the version of DIRECTX or video driver you are using. Get them updated. > The computer is a HP p4 2.8ghz with 512 ram running > xp home edition ?? > Have tried tweaking display settings but still does > it sometimes... Like Growly said, you'll find limited help from this forum. You'll need specialised Max Payne forums like GamePlanet etc www.gpforums.co.nz |
