Loaded Game wont play

Hi out there
I cant play games on my computer.
The game loads, but when I click on Play
Screen goes black and cursor is all that is visable.
Can anyone give me some advice ??
Thanks

Hello BeN007 and welcome to VirtualDR https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Can you please post your computer specifications.
Try reinstalling the drivers for your sound card and video card, next reinstall or install Direct X 8.0 and then try playing your games again.
Hope that it helps.
