Crossfire97 0 Posted February 16, 2016 Hi, sorry to be a bother with this question but this is been bugging me for quite a while now. My command and conquer zero hour wont load any more, as in I click the game to load however it just shows a blank screen (my desktop background) not even showing the first small screen zero hour picture to give an indication that its loading. I don't know if this is a thing which is happening with other people but its happening to me and im not happy. I am considering buying a new copy of this game to see if that works but I don't know if its that simple, because why should a CD just stop working like that, it has no noticeable scratches on it making me even more clueless to know what is going on. Hope I stated my issue clearly enough for you to understand, and if people question further I will try my best to answer. Thanks for reading Share this post Link to post
