Gow startup problem

[boden08]

Hi all,
Gears of war will not start, once i put the disk in and click on play the screen goes blank and a error msg comes up saying ( to play gears of war please double click on the startup.exe). so i went in to the binaries and double clicked on the startup application in gow but the same error comes up. I have all the latest patches, drivers and googled it and found out a lot of people have had this problem on xp and there is a fix for xp for the driver of the amd dual core but i am running win 7 64bit and there is no fix that i can find.

Is there anyone that can help please.

Thanks

sayantan,
Thanks for the reply, yes it is original and i have tried everything that the epic website has said and still dont work. I had the same problem with xp but they found a fix and i had no problems with vista, but win 7 i just cant get it to work.
