Got a problem. I installed The Longest Journey, a game, on my cmputer, even played it for some time but after i saved the game and restarted the comp it just WOULDN'T WORK! I re-installed it, uninstalled, installed again and it sitll wont work. I don't get it

This is waht i got

Owch, does the game shortcut on your desktop have restore on it, when you right click?

no shortcut on my deteskop

Ah, that complicates matters...

man i installed it a dozen of times now...

the first itme it worked, now it doesn't no matter what i do... i don't get it

perhaps it's an error in the game?

perhaps.. but it never happened before and i have the game for some time now it just.. whcked up after i saved the game

This happened to me before, with the sims

apparently theres a file in some games that stays on your PC even when you uninstall, so once its uninstalled once it wont install again or something....because some file is already there

What i had to do was get a technician out.

erm... if i find one, i'll get one

thanks

have you totally removed the game, Vampz?

uh huh

Could be a DirectX problem - try downloading the latest version

http://www.microsoft.com/directx

erm.. ok, i'll download it tomorrow, now i gtg..

sooo.. when i install it again i suppose i gotta say 'no' when it asks me if i want to install directx?

Try both

That's why I hate computer games!
Too much stress! diva

how do I know if I have DirectX and which version?

Click Start->Run then type in 'dxdiag' (without the quotes) - then just read off the version number

it was a DirectX problem!

Thanks meister! kisses

YAY! thanx Raz!
