hey,

First go to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/intro.aspx
And see if you can run it if so follow these steps

Have you opend it from a copy of the icon?
Because many of programs wont run on a copy of the icon.
You can just try to play it from the instalation folder

If not try to run it as administrator this can help.

Still doesn't work then i could be your virus scanner: if you have norton for example it won't work. and some other virus scanner could abort it to.

What you have to do is simpel:just watch if your scanner has an gamer mode if so activated it if not shut your scanner down and play ONLY the game.otherwise you might get a virus.

My virus scanner is microsoft security essentials :S
Anything wrong with this specific one?
And I tried both starting the game from installation folder and icon, does the same thing.
I also tried starting it in compatibility mode for Windows 95/98/ME and it starts, but once it gets to the loading of the first level it crashes to a black screen and looping sound.
