Hi Alexander9822,
Your picture shows that there are TWO SS2008 folders present on your computer. ??? Possibly this is your problem? Try the other one and see what happens. If that is OK then delete the other one. This is just a suggestion, but if you have the game on an external hard drive it can do no harm. :-\

Angus.
