Hey @SPARKY1922 ,
Thank you for the advice. I did what you suggested but alas the game still crashed. I have a suspicion that my issue may lie with my graphics card. I looked at @JULES1111 post about someone's graphic card possibly not being recognized and followed the first step on the site they linked to. When I got to my "Graphics device info" and the database section, it stated the following:
"Name (database): ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics <>"
It's stating that that graphics card is not being found in the database, and I think this is a strong lead. Fingers crossed and I'll keep everyone posted on whether I find a solution.
The game is not recognizing your video card. You will need to follow the rest of the steps on that site, and download the graphics rules maker for your video card. That is step 3 ;)
After downloading, and installing them in the 2 folders listed, try re-launching the game to see if it is working. I don't know much about Radeon graphics, so I don't know how new that card is, some of the newer cards have issues even using the graphics rules, if that's the case they will need to be altered manually. ( Please don't ask me how to do that, I have no clue :s I had to have a friend change mine and e-mail it to me. :D
