Yeah, I can't even get to the first screen where Bethesda comes out, got there the first time but now - nothing, I already tried getting to run by changing the sound and everything else I can think of, this is just ticking me off I am very disappointed, very displeased, and very angry right now...

Does anyone even test these things these days or are they just shipped like that to see what happens?

Now I see why there was a lack of PC footage...but, hey I guess it works well on the xbox at least right =/ sure glad that one got enough tests going!

And just in case it was not clear I was being sarcastic there at the end.

What a waste of $60 and a beautiful night!

Try this mate, let me know if it works.

My system does not let me go that low but I will try the next best thing, already tried it once though.

Try installing DX9 from Microsoft's site. Doing this allowed me to get the game to start... at least until the Skyrim Logo.
