I have searched and tried the FIXIT, remove the filter upper rendered the DVD cannot play, adding the lower filter PxHelp20 made unrecognizable car, remove both filters completely unusable, the player. The DVD portion will format, but not burn DVDs. Installation and update the device driver do not work, nor does to replace the Mitsumi CD-ROM driver. The drive works because after following all the tips, my computer died, and I could use my boot on drive drive to reinstall Vista (new installation).

How do Dungeon Siege (game) still does not work?
I found this discussion (link below), but as many people (including some noted it here), this solution DOES NOT WORK for me. I get "Exception caught Gathering exception data [this can take several minutes]" as the error with a black screen. And I could wait 3 hours and still nothing happen. I receive as messages "this program is not compatible", which indicates that she has not been fixed or patched in any measure. I use the "Xplosive" 3 CD pack published by guess who? Microsoft. It seems suspicious that many games Windows XP works fine, but those published by Microsoft does not work. Isn't a little backwards?
You can do all sorts of apologist excuses like "it is an old game and no one cares", but if nobody cares, so why people keep posting questions here and anywhere online? I think you're all just try to shut us up. And why... for what? You may think that I'm just a cheapskate. I'm not just be cheap, I enjoy this game and want to play again. It's like a song. If you insist that I ever listen to 'Sail Away' of Styx again just because it is old? I bought it is game with a lot of money in good faith and I expect to work. Really, it will cost you a whopping hours of your development time for a post patch. I have no pity for you and Yes, you can bill me (better yet, when you come out with a new version of windows, just me to pay for a "maint game package" which covers your expenses, as I said, I'm not cheap, I like just the old games).
If you decide to publish something, then you have a responsibility. But giving someone something and then taking it are a sure way to frustrate and annoy your users and make people angry. That's why I have no shame to be really angry and frustrated, it's how I feel in this situation. Only one unreasonable and illogical would be satisfied with this.
That said, if someone has a different suggestion outside (because it does not work for me on Windows 7 and is not enough anyway because he keeps the messages "this game is not compatible")... Please respond and make the suggestion...
As noted, the above link leads to a '' correction '' that does not work for me or another poster in this thread. As well, "compatible" message did not go for anyone no matter what you do. Actually, I have a Windows 95 laptop I keep for all of these emergencies. It is ridiculous to have to use it for this purpose but it seems that Microsoft prefers I should do instead of using Windows 7 or something more modern. Ok then.
