need for speed underground 2 crashing problem

Hi guys I just bought this game and want to play it. But after installing it, it shows the load up screen then looks like it will go full screen but goes straight back to desktop leaving no traces of the NFSU2 program in my Processes in task manager. I tried 3 different cd drives, two different dvd-roms and two different sound cards so far (turtle beach santa cruz and integrated DFI audio). Lastly I updated the patch available on EA's website and it does the same thing. Can anyone help me with what's wrong? My specs are in my sig if needed. Last of all, YES this is a legal copy so don't give me that junk about "go out and buy it" because I did and yes, I already tried updating to the newest drivers for my audio/video cards and no luck. Thanks for any help given.


edit: p.s my other games run fine including HL2, doom3, and the new F.E.A.R. demo

Hmm..I was going to suggest it's your video card, but you mentioned you run those other games just fine. I don't have the game, but does it install the whole game to your hard drive or does it play from the cd? If it plays from the cd the cd itself could be bad.

It installs fine. But even so, I'm pretty sure you need disk two to be able to play it which i've left in drive. I think it's hopeless. I doubt Compusa will refund my product since they don't take back opened software - only exchanges.

Since your PC can run the other games, I highly doubt that it is a hardware issue....

Try a clean install, sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesnt....

All I can say is EA Games SUCKS! I have 007 NightFire and it does the EXACT same thing, shows the Load-Up Screen, goes full screen then quits.

You may try updating all your drivers, just to make sure it isn't a driver problem that is stopping it.

Try TechIMO for help...

If you can't get it working, PM me and I might buy it from you...
