hello and thanks for the quick reply...
I purchased this through Amazon
publisher? the box reads Graphsim entertainment.
I installed it with no issues.
insert the cd, hit the launch Spartan icon and then select play Spartan.
a gif comes up that looks like a guage of some type that reads "loading ...

I have installed Spartan on 3 different PCs but cannot get it to run. It freezes on the "loading" screen.
PCs range from a Pentium II 500 M to a Pentium 4 3.2 G with the latest vid and sound cards. I have deleted the movies in the data folder, but still no luck.
