Just Installed. Sound but no picture.

I bought my game from Wal-mart 6/29/11. Try to install 8/6/11 but it wouldn't accept my activation code (no internet connection at home for my Dell Vostro 1000 laptop). Got wi-fi connection 8/7/11 and downloaded patch. Installed patch; game then accepted my activation code. Now when I launch game, I an hear sound but have no picture.

The Vostro 1000 doesn't meet the game requirements. The problem is the GPU, which is the old Radeon Xpress 1150. It doesn't even come within shouting distance of a chance to run the game properly. See if they will take a return or exchange.

No, I mean the game. You can't run it on that computer. If you don't have a more capable computer than that, the game is useless to you.
