Black screen problem

September 25, 2004 4:40:21 PM from PoliticalMachine ForumsPoliticalMachine Forums
I have a brand new HP ZV5120US laptop.
Here are the specs:
Windows XP - Service Pack 1
Intel Celeron 2.8 GHz
384 MB RAM
ATI Mobility RADEON 9000 IGP - 128 MB
I have Directx9.0B and I installed the latest patch for the game.

I can see the intro, but then after that the screen goes black. There is an orange arrow cursor and I can hear the music playing. After the music stops I can't do anything on my computer.
Please help!

You need to go to

Link

and install the ATI Radeon drivers there. Once you get to the website, click on Radeon, then Windows XP and then a list of download sites will appear.
