Hey everyone!
I'm brand new to the forums, I've browsed here for a while and have found answers to several questions but have never needed to post anything until now. I'm not overly "tech savy" but can usually stumble through most directions to fix most of the simple issues I usually have. That is until this week. Let me set up what is going on and hopefully if I leave anything out someone can direct me as to what additional information they would need to assist me. Any help is extremely appreciated!
I am running XP (32 bit) on a Dell XPS 600. I recently upgraded my vid card to an Nvidia 9800 and have had ZERO issues with any other games I've tried to run. The drivers are up to date on the vid card and the sound card. I can post my dxdiag if anyone thinks that will help at all. When I attempt to boot up the game in question it goes to a windowed black screen and immediately goes into "not responding" in the task manager. I brought up my dxdiag to check everything there. Every tab in dxdiag says no problems EXCEPT my input tab. My input tab will not even open up. When I click that particular tab it loads about halfway and gets stuck.
Other games are still working fine and i have uninstalled this particular game and reinstalled it about 5 times now. I believe my issue is in my directx alone and something to do with that input tab. Can anyone please advise further? Thank you very much.
