Dungeon Siege II Startup Error

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.games (More info?)

Lately i've been dealing with some problems with this game.
On the first week of play it went smoothly but all of the sudden it started
to lock-up on the loading of the game (Black screen with white dots on the
edge).
Always when it reached the last dot the game started to run...
Now it simply locks-up.

Also, DSVideoConfig won't load up! I double click the exe file and nothing
happens. (On the task manager it shows up as taking 8mb of memory) but the
proccess won't load.

What's going on with this game?
I also tried running "DungeonSiege2.exe" nointro=true - but that didn't do
the trick.

My computer spec:
3.1 mhz AMD
1.8 GHz, 1 GB RAM
Geforce 6600

running on WindowsXP SP2/

Any help would be appreicieted!

| Anyone? Please, I'm getting frustrated.
