You guys are being so helpful and I can't thank you enough, but still no joy I had indeed downloaded the file from Sage's link, which I've just done again to see if there was an issue there, extracted it all to my Desktop, but still nothing. I don't want to have to give up on it but I really don't know what else to try.

Argh that didn't work either, can I just confirm that what I've done is correct though?

1. Downloaded the RA2 v1.4 .rar file.
2. Extracted its contents to C:\Program Files\Infogrames (also moved it to Desktop and My Documents since)
3. Sent shortcut to desktop and launched game.

I read somewhere about a NO-CD patch, it couldn't be that I'm missing something simple, could it?

Just tried that, this time I got one screen further (the ESRB one) before it crashed, which is even more frustrating as I thought I might be getting somewhere this time.

I moved it to the Desktop and tried running it from there, but no joy either.

Hi guys, sorry to be a bother but having problems getting the game to even start. Have downloaded the Winrar file and extracted its contents to C:\Program Files\Infogrames, sent a shortcut to the desktop and tried to load RA2. After seeing the Infogrames logo and a message about robotic combat the whole thing locks and I get a message saying "RA2.exe is not responding". I've tried ticking Run as Administrator, I've even tried using compatibility mode, but nothing is getting the game to work. I've had a similar issue with some Steam games (something I still can't get around) and my laptop is relatively new, so I don't know what the problem is, any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
