Lord of the Rings: BFME2 Problem

edited April 2007 in Gaming
So I've installed the new game. Everything installs just fine. However, for some reason the game will absolutely not load. I double click the icon and it "thinks" for a few seconds and nothing else happens.

I've been using the online tech support from EA and have done everything they've come up with so far. This includes: updated video card drivers, updated motherboard drivers, and closed all unecessary background processes. They all produce the same result: the game not loading. Even if I auto-run off of disc 1 and click "play" through the beginning screen it still doesn't do anything. Of note: it does add the "lotrbfme2.exe" process for a few seconds but then it goes away.

Anyone have any ideas? I'll attach my most recent "dxdiag" results (i.e. after updating the drivers and such).

Other things of note: I was able to play BFME1 with no problems at all. Also, I tried installing the demo of BFME2 and it produces the same results.

My Computer Specs: AMD64 Venice 3200+ @ stock speed, 2GB RAM, MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard, BFG Geforce 6600, 500W Antec Power Supply.

    Well forget my question. I updated my DirectX files and now it's working like a dream!

    Good job! Sometimes all it takes is seeing it in words to figure out a problem!
