I am currently trying to get my copy of madden 07 to run properly

I have a physical copy of madden 07 and the game installed propperly in windows xp compatablity mode and in windows xp mode but both cases when i try to run the game i either get a direct3D error or can not locate the DVD-Rom error and i just do not know what to do to remedy this situation has anyone on here gotten this game to work.

Well i found a work around myself.

If anyone else runs into this problem my solution was to copy all the files from the DVD-Rom into a Directory i created for it.. then in command prompt i executed the game with the -DXinstalled attribute
