just shows a black screen. Help!? When I try to start the game a black screen pops up that eventually makes my cursor vanish. The game hasn't worked before on my computer. I just installed it. My display devices are as follows:

Name: ATI RADEON Xpress 200 series.
Manufacturer: ATI Technologies inc.
Chip Type: ATI RADEON Xpress 200 series (0x5954)
DAC Type: Internal DAC(400MHz)
Approx. Total Memory: 128.0 MB


Can someone tell me what to do? I am using Windows Xp.

Video Card Fix

I have the exact same video card, and the exact same thing happened to me. There is nothing you can do except go to an electronics store(best buy, etc.) and purchase a new video card. The problem is, that card is outdated. I am running a Windows 7 on a pc that was built in 2005, which is around when that card came out. Way before the game you installed, probably. If the game is an old one for example the Original Call of Duty, then games like those should work just fine and you may only need a driver update, but if your trying to run a newer game such as Call of Duty World at War or a more demanding game, then you will have to buy a new video card, like I said above. They usually run about $50 - $100 dollars depending on what you want one to do. a ATI Radeon HD would be perfect and you can get it for about $70 dollars.
