this will pb sound a lot like most of the posts you've read so far. i try to
run Alien vs Predator 2, CSI, and GTA:Vice City. when i go to run them, they
minimize to the taskbar and all i see is windows. when i keep trying to
click on them, they pop up for a second, then go back to the desktop. CSI
doesnt even do that. CSI will just run a black screen, then disappear
entirely. all 3 use to work fine until now. i am running winXP Pro with
384MB RAM, 64MB ATI All-in-Wonder graphics card. as a side note, alien vs
predator started having problems when i had my old card, a 32MB nVidia TNT2
card, installed. all drivers are up-to-date and i hav directx 9.0b
installed. any help will be appreciated. thanx in advance

Hey mate,

try right-clicking on the execute file (.exe) go into
propities-into the program tab and click the check box
close on exit, then open the game. instead of closing
straight away it will ask you when to close it, then if
there is an error message you can write it down and
search for the answer to the error. hope it helps.
