Game wont run on XP

Installed fifa 2003 a while ago and worked fine, now i
put the cd in and it runs, but ii get a black screen &
enlarged hour glass? I noticed the the font on start up
is also enlarged, similar to what it looks like whilst in
safe mode, however my desk top icons look ok ????

Any ideas out there????

Yes, try and use your time more positively....playing games is not really a
manner in which to increase your role in life...bet your parents would like
to see you getting involved in something (ANYTHING) in which you could
improve your gamer lifestyle.....think about it......

What Ferris would you rather he learned the fine art of Break and Enter or how to jack a car in under 30 sec? Perhaps you would prefer he learn the correct technique for tying off just before main lining? In short Ferris this is not the site for your opini
ons. If you can't help someone just shut up.

Great answer, although a bit too direct for some.
Many people (especially young or with low self-esteem)
choose the avoidance of life, rather than increasing their
knowledge and abilities for future benefit.
A "DUH" from the wisdom that comes with time (usually, and
some longer than others).
