I have problem running this game.
Tried 2 different versions ,(RELOADED , VITALITY) , crackfix..nothing works.
I run setup , installed the game , set the configuration menu , and when I run the game just got the black screen with sand-glass runnng...
Anyone have idea?
Newest drivers for MBO, GPU , ..etc are present , OS is XP ,
AM2 5000 x2 ,4 gb DDR2 ,HD 4850

I have a similar problem.
I think it has something to do with the ATI graphics card. I have a 3850 and got these problems after I switched from my old nvidia 7800 to the ati 3850. with the nvidia card the game did run without any problems.
then I found out that the game is actually working with the ati card, too - with one difference : insane loading times!
when the black screen appears you have to WAIT - for a very long time. could take about 30 minutes until the main menu appears, then you can load a savegame - and that may take additional 30 minutes.
so after 30-60 minutes waiting the game is running (no joke). I have no idea whats really behind this. Confused
