Red Alert 2 problem

For the past week I've been trying to install red alert 2 on my pc. I'm running windows xp sp2 and the last time I remember installing this game it was on a windows 2000 os.
It installs and updates perfectly, but for some reason I can't run the game!!
Then I tried running yuri's revenge. Nothing at all.

Any ideas? Cuz I'm at my wit's end!!

Re: Red Alert 2 problem

What exact video card and driver version are you running? Is there an updated or alternative driver available from Microsoft or the cards manufacturers? Google is your friend. Try a heap of different drivers and see if one works.

Re: Red Alert 2 problem

well I tried the drivers of my hp laptop that only runs 86.14 or something like that and even that one isn't even booting up it just stays on the red alert 2 window that shows before even going to the game and then it just stays there.

On the other hand I just installed tiberian sun and I didn't even have to do anything, I just ran the installer and it ran just fine in fact I just played an entire level and it went perfectly!

Seriously...I don't know what's wrong...if tiberian sun ran and it's OLDER than red alert 2 than why doesn't red alert 2 run??
