I was hoping someone might be able to help, i recently bought the 7th guest and the 11th hour, thinking it would work fine with my windows xp... how wrong i was... i can get so far upon installing the game when the system crashes and i have to re-load the game... i get as far as testing the compatibility for video, then the game states everything is fine and im required to press any button to continue... this is where nothing happens and no matter what button i press nothing happens... I have read many walk through guides for installing the game but none seem to have problems for video... it seems everyone has problems with sound.. i cant get that far :o(
can someone please help!!!
