For some reason both the original Armada 2 and Fleet Operations seem to keep when loading the game and in game play for Fleet Operations, keep going back to the desktop and i've tried to see what is wrong but no luck i thought it's the desktop themes, yet i changed them a few times and still the problem remained.

Also when i try to re-enter the game again it just goes back to the desktop everytime i try.

Help please.

Windows XP Home
Intel®
Celeron® CPU
1.70 GHz
256MB or RAM
NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 - Graphics Card


Hope that specs help?

my two recommendations
1. get new drivers
for your mainboard chipset here
for your graphic card here
2. close unused programs

and don't get angry, that won't change my responce time in any way
