Cheers,
Jimmy.
| well i was doing some thinking and i thought back to when
| i got grand theft auto 3 because rockstar games maked gta
| 3 and max payne and i remembered that gta 3 wouldnt start
| twhen i clicked on it it would just crash back to desktop
| i was trying a few thing then i tried to run the program
| under administrator and it worked so i tried that for maz
| paye 2 and sure enugh it worked i remember playing the
| demo and when i started the first lvl i realized that this
| isnt the game to beplaying in the middl of the night i
| havent trid halo yet but i will soon i was thinking of
| renaming the movies back to the oringal to see if they
| would work. well thanks for all your help
