You will probably have to run a CONFIG.EXE program or SETUP.EXE in the program's directory and configure your display adapter there (just tell it what kind of video card you have and what resolution and colour depth you want to run it at etc)

I don't know the game myself. But just out of interest, how is the attached picture really going to help people to help you?

Thanks

Jim

IHATEXP84, I don’t know if that is a typo or not, but don’t call people names here at PCMech!
Please read the PC Mechanic FAQ’s

IHATEXP84,

I think we figured out that it was a face.And I dont think what we posted was rude.

it clearly states that your upset about the situation.so we just stating that that is the first that I saw someone attach anything like that.
