Try reinstalling the games a few times maybe works ... are you sure nothing happens ? maybe you get a blue screen or cabal loads and crashes ... in case the problem is crashing reinstalling the game is also the solution or check your anti-virus ... maybe it blocks cabal ... and about blue screen , it is a sticky about it . Search : how to prevent blue screen . I think it's made by RatzaTM ( best GA ever

) . Good luck
