Hi, I've tried every possible suggestion and solution found in the forum and in the game support page still no luck. I'm running windows 7 64 bit ultimate edition, I've also submitted a ticket and still no reply. The most I've gotten is when I set both disable visual themes and disable desktop composition to checked, it seems to start, my screen flashes black and then it does nothing.

Any suggestions? Did anyone face the same issue?

Thanks in advance.

Did you try to change the compatibility settings? If the box is grayed out, click "show settings for all users" button and there unclick it, clikc ok and you will be able to change it. Experiment a bit with it. Try Win XP or win 98 / 95 settings.

Yeah, I've tried pretty much all the possible combinations and still nothing :(

Did you try 256 color mode as well?

Also - did you update your drivers (especially graphic card)? I know it may seem silly - update a driver for an old game but believe me - it helps a lot with many games

Please let me know if it works! If not I will try to come up with yet another solution ;)
