I ran the installer and directed it to a new folder C:\Games\Open General. The game will load the intro movie however it locks up after this. I have also installed the challenge campaign. I have also tried running as administrator with no luck as well.

    Please rename the intro movie and try to run the game again, to discard it is related to video codecs.

    I renamed the intro movie and it still crashes at the next splash screen where I should be able to pick the scenario. I am also the person having problems installing the game with DDraw on the other thread (but that is a separate computer) and that computer does have directx (actually it is a pretty beastly machine). Any other advice? I would LOVE to be able to play this.

    Can you tell me something about your machines, which windows, video card memory and directX version , and if you tested DirectDraw using dxdiag ?

    This computer is a lenovo I5 laptop with windows 7 x64 and an integrated gfx card. The computer has 4 gigs of ram and is running an older version of directx 9 (not sure of the specifics. I left it on campus but will check in the morning).
