i have dungeon seige:legends of aranna. i installed fine.worked for a day now
when i use it i get an error message. when i investigated this i found out
that some thing called data execution prevention that is built into windows
is preventing the game from getting past the start up window where you have
the choice of play,web,uninstall,etc.when i click play it errors and that's
as far as i get.
i am using a dell 9150. it's 2.7ghz dual core,1024mb RAM , x600radeon 256mb
video.i installed the game as admin but use my limited personal acct to play
on.
same prob exists though when i try on admin HELP PLEASE!!!
thanx

This is the kind of error that you really should explore directly with
Microsoft. If you OWN the game, you also bought technical support. Send
the same information to M$ via email. They actually do respond (usually)
and within a reasonable time frame (unlike some other applications I have).
Go to the microsoft.com web site and navigate through the technical support
windows to send off a message. A serial number will help.

[You, of course, do have the original disk 1 (not a copy) in the CD drive.]
