    Everytime i wanted to run the game, the system was loading something (the game doesn't start at all, its just the mouse cursor showing that something is loading), then after a few seconds i get a BSOD, telling something about memory on top of the screen.
    I patched the game to 1.1 in hope that it will get solved, but now i can't even execute the game, it imedietlly gives me the send/do not send error from microsoft. I haven't reinstalled the game yet, as i hope i will get something to fix it. I googled it, and it seems more users had the same problem, but none posted a fix for it, i guess they just quit playing it.

    It usually says what failed ... ex something.ini ... if you can find out what it is that failed that can help figure out what the problem is.
