When i start the game the intro video starts but as soon as i get to the menu the moniter turns off but i can still hear the music then it freezes. Any idea why this happens plz help.
Also when i try to install Beyond the sword, it says checking for updates. Then it aborts. and i lose the installation.
 
it says it cant because its not compatible with the version and it says i have to unistall the previous version when i didnt download any patches. The version is 1.09.00

sorry work made me forget this thread :blush:

Anyway: you graphics card and rest of the machine should be plenty capable of running this game.
The game seems to be correctly installed - so it is not trivial to find out what happens.
If the monitor turns off on you it is probably some graphics card or driver issue - I see that you have a recent driver installed maybe try an omega driver:

but appart from that I am unfortunately out of ideas :sad:
