Have you checked the official support page and installed the patch?

I too have a white screen and an unplayable game. The reason for this in my case and probabably yours is that I have a GeForce4 MX graphics card, which is not supported by the game. At all. Ever. So we wasted our 30+ bucks, because I don't know about you, but I'm not buying a new card just to play this game. So thanks a lot, jackasses. Now that you got my money and I've got nothing to show for it, I guess I'll go back to playing Doom 3. That and not ever buying any Midway games again.

The white screen error is a common issue for people who do not have a supported video chipset/card. The supported chips/cards are listed on the bottom of the game box and also at Midway's Support Department knowledgebase: http://www.fuzeqna.com/midway/consumer/kbdetail.asp?kbid=152
