Help needed, game won't load

Hey.

I'm running WinXP Pro and am having trouble running a game. The game itself
has installed properly but when I click on the game icon on the desktop to
launch it the 'hour glass' spins a little as if it's starting up then
just.... nothing. It doesn't start. The game is Alien Vs Predator Gold
Edition and is XP compatible. Any reason why this should be happening? I've
recently ran Home World and that works perfectly. Any ideas would be great,
thanks!

Hello,

Try installing the latest patch here
http://browse.files.filefront.com/Aliens+vs+Predator+Official+Patches/...8389;/b

I am not sure whether the Gold Edition has the latest patch already
installed so do check before downloading.
