I've gotten past the "missing file" in system32... Which took me a while to figure it out; (find the forums and where to look for answers).
However now that that's been fixed, I'm experience a "stick" or "freeze" in the loading of the game. Right after clicking the icon on my desktop the game opens up to load and half way through it stops. It will sit there for a good couple of minutes before I get so frustrated with it I shut it down and try to restart the game. This fixed the first "freeze"/"stick" I had in the first load but this last one doesn't seem to want to "refresh" as some others had put it...

I don't know what else to do? I don't have a firewall, it's being blocked. I've let it sit for a good 20-30 minutes now and no progress! I've never played this game before I'd really like to give it a try! Someone help!!!

EDIT: I'm running Windows Xp with atleast minimum system requirements.
