Interactive games on vaio

[kewiki]

Tried to load a Medal of Honor game on a Vaio Vgc RA834G Media ctr computer. Game loaded fine, have checked all that I dare and the game won't boot up. It even asks for the CD if not in place, yet does nothing. Checked for upgrades and have downloaded patches and still nothing. I would think w\all the bells and whistles this unit has loading a simple game should not be a problem. Any available help would be greatly appreciated.

do the bells and whistles include a good video card ,that meet the games system requirements

no , of corse not ,what os are u running ,how old is the game ,was it developed for win98 or winxp maybe and you are trying to run it on Vista .
before you click on the exe to run the game ,right clcik on it and choose ,properties/compatibility,and choose different windows os maybe or even choose different display properties
