YOYO,
Did you install latest dx drvrs before trying to install the game?
After a format and os install, drivers should be installed in certain sequence:
1:mobo drvrs 2:dx drvrs 3:vid card drvrs 4: sound card drvrs 5:any other drvrs needed pertaining to sys.
now you can get away installing them in diff sequences, but i found this to be the most error free way.
