Built a system for a friend and when M$ did the XP updates SP3 was included. This is the system specs:

Case: Ultra MicroFly
PSU: Ultra 600W (from a MX6) [update later]
Mobo: Biostar Tf 7025-M2
CPU: AMD 4400+ Brisbane (CAA4C 0725WPDW) w/ zalman CNPS8700
GPU: MSI NX8800GT OC (Dual Slot version)
Memory: 2 x 1024 Corsair CM2X1024 – 6400C4
HDD: TBD
Optical Drive #1: Lite-On SATA DVD-R #DH-16D2S-04
Optical Drive #2: Lite-On SATA DVD-RW+ #LH-20A1S
FDD: Mitsumi Card Reader/ Writer + Floppy
OS: M$ XP Pro w/ SP3

Received a couple of emails from a friend about issues in playing his main games, The C & C series. As noted in his comments the only difference other than the new system, the BB refers to a NF7-S system I built for him, is the install of SP3. Wouldn’t think there would be a hardware issue, but open to suggestions there.

“Not sure what I did, tried to load command & conquer: Yuri’s revenge ( expansion pack) will load and install but will not play?”

“Tried the other CD’s no luck in that department still comes up with a “Fatal Error” however it does allow me to register and stuff, but to load not working for a game play no luck. Is their a way we can undo SP3 and only load SP2? I seem to recall everything worked on BB in SP2.”


I’m too software challenged to make any usefull suggestions other than SP3 being the problem.
