The game loads well and plays well......till its time to stop. I save the game but the next time I go to play, the menu is unclickable, just goes up and down.I thought it may have been my old card but now have a 6800 and still no luck.
Any ideas?, looks like a cool game. Would like to get further than the birthday present at the begining :)

forgot about this post I started. I gave up and uninstalled the game.
The in game menus are unclickable, they just go top to bottom at jet speed.
To try and click on any line is like some twisted version of wheel of fourtune.
The graphics themselves are very nice.
Thanks all. :)

Have you tried updating (or re-installing) your graphics drivers? This is because I ever encountered a similar problem on another game and by re-installing my current graphics drivers, the unresponsive menu interface problem is gone. Hope this helps. :)

So... Did it work? But also. I had kinda a similar problem, On um.. Well i forgot the name of the game but it kinda did that. I had to change my resolution. Al tho i don't think that will fix your problem. I believe that Des is correct.

I just remembered something. I removed all traces of my graphics drivers and did a clean install. That's how I solved the problem (in my case, that is). You can check out [url="http://www.tweakguides.com/"]TweakGuides[/url] to look for the graphics driver installation. Since yours is Nvidia Geforce 6800, take a look [url="http://www.tweakguides.com/NVFORCE_1.html"]here[/url].

thanks for the tips, I will try what you said. I had a look at the tweak guide it could take me a while for that one, looks complicated at first. Some real good ideas there. Dont know much about computers except to turn them on. First thing I read was that my 450w ps is not enough for a 6800 card. :)
I should add that the game runs fine, all menus work till I want to quit and save the game. When trying, say the next day, it wont work. I could leave the pc on till I am done:laugh:
