Error: access violation

[dopeycustard]

I have successfully downloaded and installed a game but when I try to launch it it comes up with error access violation message. The computer is OK and all other games play without a problem. Any ideas!

[ChuckFickens]

Nope, no idea what the game is or what operating system you are running at all.

[dopeycustard]

sorry it is Windows Vista and the game is large file one from Big Fish called Haunted Legends, Queen of Spades and yes I have contacted BF!

When you say you downloaded it, is it a legitimate version or have you found it on a torrent site?

[dopeycustard]

Yes its legit. Have been using Big Fish for at least 10 years!

[squarebear]

Is the game compatible with Vista?

[dopeycustard]

.Everything else has been but I don't know how to check!

[squarebear]

When you downloaded it, it should have a compatibility list, like 750Mhz processor, 20Mb of disk space and so on. Try going back to the site you bought it from and double check.

[dopeycustard]

so how do I find out if it is compatible or not, I do not know how many mb's the computer has and I wouldn't know where to start so perhaps you had better just give up on me (now you know why I'm "dopeycustard"!

I have found a fix of sorts for you here, looks like a lot of people have the same issue.

I know it's for a different game, but try it anyway.
