Did you try intstall it with Compatability for XP? I've heard that can be an issue.

Also try running a registry cleaner. There could be leftovers from the last install causing problems.

Yeah, I've heard that some games will need to be played in Compatibility mod on Vista or Windows 7. I'm still running XP so I don't know which games they are. It was just a thought to check on. ;)

It's a Win7/Vista trick. You can run a program in various levels of compatability.
