Problems running a game with Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Chipset Family
There's a game called The Lounge. I got a new laptop yesterday with Vista on it. On my old computer which had XP I was able to run the game just fine but with Intel all of the graphics are messed up. There's a lot of missing and flashing things going on. I've spoke to people from Sony and they just told me to upgrade my driver. I did do that and it's still not working...

Second Life on Windows Vista Home
Hi, I have recently upgraded a new laptop with Windows Vista home automatically installed and generally find Vista very easy to use and with a lot more useful automatic programmes such as Windows emial, calendar and contacts. No need for MS Outlook as it seems to behave the same and is just as intuitive. However on my old laptop I had installed Second Life and apart from the odd cras...

Hal0 2 & 64bit Vista
Should Halo 2 for Vista work on Vista Home Premium 64bit? The package says "For Vista" and another labels says "Halo 2 PC 32-Bit Vista. I asked the store clerk and was told, "It should work but it is not optimized for 64bit." It installed, screwed up my sound so I looked for and update. After installed the first update I got the BLUE screen of death. I uninstalled Halo 2 and did a syst...

Halo 2 Asking for disk everytime I finish the Quarantine Zone
Everytime I finish the Quarantine Zone level, and the cut scene plays where the brutes shoot you off the edge, it comes up with a message "Please insert your original Halo 2 disk". What I have done so far is uninstall/reinstall of Halo 2, no luck. Decided I could use a fresh install of Windows anyway, so reinstalled that, and then Halo 2, still no luck. Figured maybe there was a probl...

Halo 2 requests original install disk randomly.
This is getting frustrating. I play Halo 2 for a while and then it will ask for the original disk. Well, the disk is in the DVD drive! If I answer yes then it restarts the game at the last checkpoint, maybe, or it might start me back where I started playing the game that session. That could me 2 hours of game play to do over again. Why is this happening and what can I do about it? Rive...
