I recently bought Curse of Monkey Island...
 
 The Problem is I install it and then when I try to play it it asks me to install direct x 5... every time I do it does the same thing every time and won't even start the game.
 
 I installed direct x 9.0c to see if that would work and no.. still the same stupid message..
 
 Please I have been dying to play it and it won't let me....
 
 buy the way its not a hardware problem.... Its hard to find a computer now days that is not compatible..... any help is appreciated
 ..

 Go there, install ScummVM and add the game. You may need to copy the files from both cds into a single directory.
 If you're still stuck, post and I'll get back to you.
