Hi Steve,
I have disabled his page file because I find that it can be a pain in VM.
Also I found the RegEdit program and found the remnants of several programs
that had been uninstalled but as usual, there was loads there, stopping a
re-install of that game.
Would it be worth trying that with the Cricket game before getting in touch
with Codemasters? Hubby can't see the point of getting in touch with them, he
thinks that sort of thing a waste of time. Depression affects some that way.
Thanks Steve, you have been a help, I'll contact Codemasters myself and put
our problem across to them. Now Call of Duty 2 says that it's not compatible
with the graphics and yet it's been played before.
So help is definitly needed
Cheers
