    Dude, if you tried Googleing your problem there are lots of answers out there.

    Afterdawn is a great site, but not the be-all end-all of things. People that help here do it for free and on their own time.

    What OS are you running (since you didn't post that important info)

    If you have XP do you have Service pack 3 installed?

    Amazing i've neve had to need the cd after xp was activated to get any updates,regardless if the xp install was without any service packs or with SP1,perhaps you should download SP3 iso & burn it to rom,however if your copy of xp is pirated you may have to get the updated version of it..lmao..

    No its not pirated ..

    Theirs this yellow shield at the bottom right corner near the time and it says .. windows found 2 updates and first you must accept liscence terms.

    Windows xp service pack 3 (update 1 of 2) failed!

    Turn off auto update & use windows update from now on (icon is in start menu) or not, but first download the SP3 ISO & burn it to a cd,it should be at microsoft downloads or just google it,not accepting liscence will cancel any updating if you use auto update,the cd burned with sp3 can be installed offline if need be,sp3 is cumulitive once done just get the rest by using the custom button on the windows update page,it will be necessary to install active x

    I figured out why the game ran so slow...

    Okay i guess.. if you have a profile of the game saved on gamejackel even if its not running.. and when you go into steam and try to play the game.. it freezes.. once i erased the profile offa gamejackel it worked!!

    STupid steam!!!!
