Hi
I'm new at this stuff but maybe someone can make a suggestion or point me in the right direction.

I have installed Winspmbt onto my laptop which runs on Windows 7. Followed all instructions and the download and extraction looked okay, until I clicked onto the Play Winspmbt. Nothing happens and the pop screen "game options" disappears. Looked at the Task manager and the program was not running.

Look forward to some replies and hopefully be in a position to play the game.

Kind regards

Not being silly but you have applied all the patches? If so & you installed it where stated should work perfectly.
Did you switch off game intro though think this plays now?
Have you tried windowed mode? set resolution to desktop if downloaded bought version.
Does your virus checker or firewall run new programs in a sandbox & is blocking it till you give the OK?

Thanks John

I did originally run the patches, however decided to rerinstall them against after reading your response. Patch 4.0 failed to install a couple of times (I recall this happening on my first installation but merrily continued on my way loading the other patches)and then managed to do it on the 3rd time round. All other patches post 4.0 went okay. Am able to play the game now. Thanks for your response.

Kind regards
