Hello. I recently purchased SotS Ultimate Collection. I was very excited, I had never heard of the game before, but it sounded like a great game. I even did some research on it and I just had to have it. The specs did not sound too demanding which is good, because I do not have the best of laptops.
However, after multiple attempts with two different disks, I am still having the same problem. When I load the disk the auto screen pops up and says something is in my drive and wants to know if I want to allow the install. I double click it and it asks if I want to allow the program to allow changes to my computer and I click yes. Then another screen pops up asking if I want to start the process and I click yes and then nothing happens. I can hear the fan of my lap top working harder than normal, maybe the disk drive itself as well, but nothing else. No screen asking where I want to download the game or folder to. No loading bar. No nothing. I do Ctrl, Alt, Delete and try to look at my Task Manager and the box pops up, but it is completely empty. I try to shut the box down and it wont go away, just says not responding. I have to do a force restart. I tried doing it more than once, even letting it run for minutes, but still nothing downloads.
Here are my system specs. I think it all matches, the only thing I am not sure of is the integrated graphics card which I have no choice for this laptop. But most games will either let me download the game and then wont play or give me a warning it wont be able to be downloaded, this game just does nothing.
Compaq Presario
CQ60-615DX
Notebook PC
Intel Celeron Processor 900 (2.2GHz)
250GB (7200RPM) Hard Drive
2048MB DDR2 SDRAM (2 Dimm)
Super Multi 8x DVD ("Plus" sign over a "minus" sign) R/RW w/Double Layer Support
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium (64-Bit)
It looks like everything should be ok, except for the integrated graphics card which I have no idea what it is comparable too. I know it is not good... but I would assume it would run this game with at least lowest settings. Any help would be appreciated. The only other problem I can think of is that the game CD has what looks like glue right next to the circle opening. Both CDs had that however. I do not think it is blocking any data, but none the less both games had it and both did not work and did the same thing. I am not even sure why it is even there... looks like sloppy work is the only thing I can think of. There is not a single scratch, the disks look beautiful, except for what looks like glue, but it can not be rubbed off with a soft cloth.
Thank you for your time and patience.
