What exactly is your video card? It could be insufficient to play the game (many PC games simply play the first cutscene and then refuse to continue).

Hmm, that's weird, it should be able to run the game.

Check the manual and Bungie's forums, also check your video and Vista drivers.

Remember that the video drivers have to be from the manufacturer. Stock ones from ATI or Nvidia on mobile chipsets don't work.
