my wife plays these ans they have been on her pc for a couple of years although she's not played it for at least 6 months probably more.
however she recently came to try to play it and it wont work - some error 4 on start up. also a problem with a black/blank screen and a white arrow.
she actually bought another new copy of rcte and soaked which still dont work.
we also had a major problem trying to uninstall soaked - after checking out some forums we had to simply delete and remove some registry entries as it would not unsintall via window add/remove programs or via the rct3 or soaked discs.
so now i'm simply trying to get rct3 running for her.
i've updated the graphics drivers to the latest. and reduced the resolution to 800x600 in the options txt file but all she gets is the main menu tries to load but options are missing and you cannot click anything.
after 5-10 mins this crashes out to the windows desktop with a rct3 error and do you want to send the error message.
anyone got any ideas or had this issue? i finally got around to installing it on my pc earlier and its runs fine.
the annoying thing is that it ran fine on her machine previously as did soaked. no hardware has changed in her pc....just a new mouse !
if we could at least get RCT3 running we may then have a chance of getting soaked to work to but for now she would settle for rct3 to work seeing as how she's paid for 2 copies !!
thanks.
