i am playing on a PC desktop that has built in GPU(Nvidia 6150 Le) i have tried deleting .xml file and running the game in XP compatibility mode but they done change anything.
as for my GPU i dont thinkk thats the prob because it ran the game for a few days on high settings easily.
Please help me i really wanna play this game

There is a possibility that with a hard shut down from a power outage has caused some problems in windows itself, have you tried a restore point before the power went out.
You should also check your ram, it could be bad from a power outage not likely but worth looking at.
Have you played any other games since?

well im still downloading the the update and Direct X update so ill inform if that works.
as for the Duke's question
1_I have tried running it with many compatibility modes(XPsp3 Xpsp2 vista etc),deleting the .xml file ,reinstalling the game but problem still remains
2_well when i turn graphics to highest the ground begins to glow (something like that)nothing else.I have installed 1.4.1 patch but it still shows 1.4
3_nah, installed nothing but the PC was turned off because of power outage
4_yeah textures are there
5_no it doesnt crash and yes tried the compatibility thing
6_Legal(my friend bought it for me and he didnt install it on his PC)
and i dont think somethings wrong with my ram bcuz i am playing other game and its working flawlessly
