Running with XP and nvida graphics bicycle games stopped responding and would not open. All the latest upgrades are installed but the game does not open when the game icon is clicked.

Hi Garry,
If it has been working yet just stopped responding this week, use a
recent restore point if you have one to recover from this issue.

Hi Garry,
Since restoring your system to the state it was in when the game worked
hasn't resolved the issue, let's try reinstalling the game next. Use Control
Panel / Add Remove programs to do so. I hope this helps Garry!

| jimmy,
| Thanks for the reply,
| I have upgraded to xp professional also upgraded to the latest 9b directex drivers plus upgraded to msn 8 in fact i have upgraded
all my Microsoft applications. The last restore point i used was when i upgraded to MSN8. The problem still occurs. I wonder whether
i had the game working by accident in the first place or should it function with XP?
| Is it the direct x drivers that are not compatable or the graphics drivers that are not right?
| I have checked the windows upgrade for all my applications and have nothing more to upgrade so all the software should be in good
shape.
| It was a nice game while i was travelling around but i guess i can live without it. The technical issues however frustrate me , i
like to know why these things happen and how i can avoid the same thing in the future.
| Thanks for your help. Regards garry
