This was a gift and I finally got around to installing it. Or I should say tried. I tried to run it on a laptop and 3 computers but the game will not start. Just a black screen.The one thing to be aware of is the fact that your monitor card has to be texture and lighting compliant. My nvidia quardo fx 1400 from some reason will not work.Also, note that Black Isle is dead and Vivendi has a not that they will no longer support this game.Do not buy it.If I ever get it running I will come back and change this review.
