Elaine is that The Angel of Death ? I have just downloaded it, LOL waited ages for it to come out . but not played it yet.
Have a butchas at the read me notepad:- it gives TROUBLESHOOTING: e.g.
DIRECTX(R) INSTALLATION
The Broken Sword - The Angel of Death launcher gives you the chance to update your version of DirectX(R) to the required version to play Broken Sword - The Angel of Death. Select this option if your actual DirectX(R) version is older than DirectX(R) 9.0c. THQ recommends allowing the installer to proceed with the DirectX(R) 9.0c installation, even if you think you may have 9.0c installed. Re-installing DirectX(R) 9.0c will not harm your DirectX(R) configuration. Broken Sword - The Angel of Death requires DirectX(R) 9.0c to play. If the correct version of DirectX is not installed by the time the game installation begins the installer will automatically detect this and update the DirectX version to 9.0c silently.
I'll let you know if mines okay.
