But it will install on my laptop but i dont want the game on my laptop because of the memory it takes up but the only difference is my computer is XP and my laptop is Vista . i know the game requires certain things one being the disk drive which when i looked at is the right one and has the same as my laptop so i just need to know how i can get it too work on my computer any help welcome?? thanks danefc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimland Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 There is something weird going on with your computer then. The best advice I can give you is to get the game through steam using the keycode from the back of the manual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
