Thanks for ideas, ill try and post if they work, but i am having another problem also my game stopped working when i simply tried to freakin rename the vietcong folder in my program files, is this some kinda anti cheat measure, or is it just my computer, cause if it is a anti cheat method, its a goddam lame try!! Are they trying to prevent us of making copies on our hard drive of the game? shouldnt we be able to do that when we purchased the game and make a copy on our hard drive for personal purposes? Or is it just my computer being stupid,? Peace
