No playable games?

[latvietis]

Hello! I'm new to this forum so please be gently. I have big problem. I can't find any playable game. Ok, I bought new PC (statistics are in the end) and I tried Tomb Rider: U, but it didn't work. OK I could understand that. Also that Brothers in Arms Hells Highway didn't work. But why games like Call of Duty 2 and BiA: Earned in blood do the same? And the last thing was that even Max Payne (1) crashes. Ok, it doesn't even start. What to do? Is there a way to play any game? I don't need great graphics, i just want to play something more advanced than Solitaire. Please help!

Ok, got Max Payne working, but in same time Battlefield 2 doesn't.

This will be my first post... Brand new games are designed for the latest and greatest desktop cards. Laptop 3d cards are a few generations behind. I don't think there are any current laptops that can play those games. There are a ton of great games made pre 2007.

BF2 should work. Make sure you have the latest video drivers installed from the intel website.

I guess it is the newest. And it doesn't work. It doesn't even start. What could be the problem?
