It'll be somewhere in those .ini files, IMHO, but which one? I'm not familiar with the game enough to start tearing it apart and have any hope of success!

Off to try... No. It just goes straight to the empty black screen - not responding.

Well, it's worth a try... Here's hoping! Later: No joy. I reinstalled completely, in the order you suggested, and all I get is the GMX Media splash screen, then nothing but black. No HD activity, and the Tesk Manager says it is not responding. Any more ideas???

First off, hi everybody! I'm new round here, but quite well known as a skinner for CFS3 on SOH. Anyway, I've got SFG, installed it, installed August 2007 DX, upgraded with SFG_sp051506b.exe and SFG_p083006.exe, and am getting nowhere. Either it won't find the CD and says "Can't find original CD" or some such - it is genuine, bought through Amazon UK - or it gets past the GMX logo, and then... just black nothing. Anybody know where to start troubleshooting? P4 2.8C, 768MB Ram, 7600GS, Windows XP Home SP2. Everything else runs fine! Cheers, Nigel
