I've reinstalled at least 5-6 times already. Each time trying pre 1.14 and post 1.14.
It runs fine pre- 1.14, can start game etc. etc.
Once I update to 1.14, I can't load it at all. When I try to run it, it goes to a blank screen, then goes back to desktop.
I'm on windows 2000.
I'm 100% sure it isn't anything wrong with my CD, Because I even used a friend's copy. Same results.

WINE?
At any rate, from what's stated, they seem to already have the 1.14 patch, and the problem occurs after it's applied
I'm not one of those who think Bill Gates is the devil. I simply suspect that if Microsoft ever met up with the devil, it wouldn't need an interpreter
