I have a problem running C&C3 Kane Edition i just bought. I cant seem to make it run. I have done all the basic things (updates, bla bla). When i run the game it just shows its splash screen then just there. Not even go into the EA video intro. My mouse works all my devices works. I am a fan of this game. ARRRGGGHHHH!!!!

I kind of had the same problem. When I tried to play c@c 3 it would get to the splash screen and it would give me a error code (1000) please insert game disk one something like that. How I got it to work I used a CD-R cleaner and then I use a Compressed Gas duster on the tray and in side of the Cd-rom and don’t ask me how but it fixed it.
If you have any antivirus software true it off and see if that helps. Also try a clean boot go to start run type msconfig then ok that should bring up a window called system configuration utility. At the top of the window look for this (Diagnostic startup-load basic devices and services only) click it the click ok it would ask you to restart let it. This will true off all your programs antivirus spy ware ect. If this doesn’t work go to http://support.ea.com/cgi-bin/ea.cf... or call EA and see if they can help. I hope this helps good luck.
