Like Display drivers and processors? 

Display Driver: Intel G45/G43 

Processors: Intel (R) 2 Duo CPU E7500 2.93 GHz

From what i know definitely terrible XD if this effects it's ability to start then i i guess i need to try again when i get a better computer, as for other part's of the computer they are all old/outdated to sadly.

Thanks, It sounds like an issue with that graphics card. I've tested it out on an old laptop with older integrated graphics) and it works. Sorry. Maybe try making sure your drivers are up to date?

So after a whole year i ended up getting a new computer. Nothing fancy, 


Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4690  3.50 GHz

My computer shows four of them? Seems like overkill but nice.  As for graphics i can just get a new video card when i have the money and pop the sucker in.  Actually trying to sell one i got for my last computer that did not work (cause the last one was so old) to. Anyway ima try the game and see if it works out now.
