Game starts but all I see is black -- HELP

Hi, I've played and beat the game so far on my windows 7 operating system without any problems at all.

My brother however just downloaded the game on his Surface pro 2 with a windows 8 operating system and I can't seem to figure out why the game isn't displaying anything.

I can read the text and start a new game but none of the graphics are working

any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

Usually when graphic files don't load it's because they weren't extracted properly. Was the game fully extracted from the download zip?

This is a different issue than the other Windows 8 topic. For the other one, the game doesn't start at all. This issue is seen on even non-windows 8 computers.

Flash and media systems shouldn't really affect the game. With all due respect, Absol, although I appreciate your trying to help, it may be better to refrain from posting if you're just taking shots in the dark.

Previously I had had downloaded and played the game on my own computer.

Then i turned my little brother onto the game( he's 10 and likes pokemon just like when i was a kid).

So I downloaded it for him using the 2nd mirror link provided in the downloads,

I just installed like anyone normally should.

I as afraid his computer might of not been able to play it since it has an onboard graphics card(probably not up to par).

the problem specifically were the sprites not loading properly, so all that was visable was the text.

All I did was download the game again and apparently it extracted fine since it plays now.
