I just purchased a new game. About halfway through installation I got the
following error message: Access violation at address 004CF14F in module". Now
when I click on the shortcut for the game I get this same error message and
can not play the game. the game says it's compatible with windows XP and that
is what I have. What do I need to do to be able to install and play this game?
Thank you for your help.
 
Hi Shelley,

The installation is corrupt. You'll need to first uninstall the game and then ..

Let's try a couple of things to get that working for you:

1. Startup your system in SAFE MODE by pressing F8 repeatedly
while your system is booting up after you've shut down your system

2. Log in with an account you've created as a "Computer Administrator"
account that you'll use to play the game, but don't use a Limited account.

I unistalled the game and started insafe mode and again tried to install the
game. when I tried to run in safe mode under user admin--i now get the
message invalid error. Is it possible that there is something wrong with this
game?
 
Hi Shelley,

Yes, that is a possibility. Can you install it on another machine to see
if the same types of issues occur on that machine as well?
