Okay don't think i can come up with anymore info (lol)...
Please if you can help i would be very thankful.
I have update my gpu drivers and i don't know what else to do.

 

might just be a corrupted file. did you try reinstalling the game?

 

yhea twice now, but i got it direct2drive so unless somthing happend in the download it should be fine. But I could be wrong.

 

Maybe you didnt dl directx9?
I would get the movies.exe file replaced.
Maybe a nocd fix?

 

the corrupted "movies.exe" brought my attention.
I suggest you replace it with a no-dvd .exe and try it. And be sure to back up the original "movies.exe"
