I've bought one of your discs and I try to download it, No problem. I can set it up!! BUT when I open it, it goes to main screen, I push launch and nothing. I don't know how to add the patch to the game. The game is StarFight VI, I'm very keen to try it but nothing. Can you help me install and activate the game?? The computer is old but game like " DARK REIGN "" C&C " work Ii just can't activate it correctly. Please help. Chris

Check to see if the disk mentions a directory where the game file exists, as some files are not always launched from demo and magazine disks via the screen which usually appears after the CD-ROM is put into the drive.

Often a disk will mention running a program by typing run d: etc etc , with Run in the Windows Start Menu, but me, I prefer right clicking on the CD-ROM's drive icon and choosing explore then manually finding the file.
