Are you saying you replaced your power supply in the computer? Power supplies have nothing to do with "speed." They are only wattages.

So to help Jenny figure this one out, we need to know what you mean by "speed."


Gardens put to bed for the winter. Time for some gaming!

I think Same must mean wattage. At first I thought Same might have overclocked the processor to increase the speed, which could have made the computer unstable.

But back to The Shield...
Same, what happens when you try to start the game?
Do you get as far as the menu screen?
Does it give you any error messages?
Are you using XP?

I Googled for
Vista compatibility wizard
and came up with ***this***
Quote:
Open the Program Compatibility Wizard by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Programs, and then clicking Use an older program with this version of Windows.
