Hi, a mate of mine has asked this question below in a games forum and I'm too dumb to help him, so
if anybody's got any advice or suggestions i'll pass them on to him, thanks -
-----------------------------

I can't install CMBB [strategy game] on my new Vista machine. The installer disk just will not be read by the new machine and seizes everything up. I have managed to install CMAK [another strategy game], but the text boxes are whited out and hard to make out, otherwise it is ok.
I have the radeon ATI HD 2600 XT video card.
Does this mean I am hooped and can't play CM on my nice new 24" video display?
If anyone knows a fix or can help, it would be appreciated.

It probably isn't made for Vista. It might be a 98se/2000/XP only game. Check the required specs on the box of the game. :thumbsup:
