To Ausgangssitutation: I have a i5 and Windows 8 64bit. Game quite regularly downloaded and installed. Überrasschung: can not. As here also already written by some, I guess that is the DAY-copy protection. The apparently used a low-level driver to be installed during the first game start. Now you have to remember that the game still has under his belt already 2-3 years. Naturally can be included then no drivers for newer operating systems. What do you do there? Correct: google. So even "day" and "copy" and sought the second goal has been to tagesprotection.com. (I hope the link is allowed here). Under the heading "drivers" you can then download the latest drivers, both in 32 and 64 bit. These are only about 200 kb. Short installed and lo and behold, I can start the game immediately with the created during installation desktop shortcut.
I still can not say much for the game itself. I am running smoothly in HD resolution. I've only played the first mission. But after the many negative recessions I wanted to give a little help. Write otherwise rather little recessions. I'm concerned, a big thank you to Amazon for this gift. Have only considered to award fewer stars because of installation problems. But in itself, the game as anything for. On the other hand, a technical note by Amazon might have been helpful and some bad reviews could have been avoided.
What to make of such a basic copy protection programs lungs, in my opinion, is another matter.
So, I hope I have helped a little, and I wish now have fun playing!
