Disc 487 runs on my laptop, but I cant get it to run on my pc anymore.

Is there something above which may force an none start. I have also noticed when trying to open Freelancer on its own I keep getting a please open this in administrator - I AM the admin!! When i open discv 487, I get the splash screen then it goes off and nothing; When I open Freelancer I get nothing at all. Finally I cant get Disc 487 to open full screen in my laptop.
