(Running Win7 64bit) I tried every single solution suggested here, and none of them worked.
I tried running it as an admin in XP SP3 Compatimility mode.
I tried running it in 640×480 on top of that.
I tried adding a 16bit.mode file.
I tried uninstalling and running the installer as an admin.
I still can’t get it to run. It continues to throw up a “Memory access violation” or an “Unknown runtime exception” error message.

Ok, i tried ALL and nothing works.

The first time i run the game in compatibility mode runs ok, but just the first time. 16bit.mode mades the game crash earlier. Installing as admin makes no change.
640, desktop composition, etc. does nothing.

Any ideas?

@Cliff – It save automatically after each planet.
@Simon – Have you tried what Herbert suggested running the INSTALLER as ADMIN?

Hi, I’m running Windows Vista (32 bit), and I only have XP compatibility mode with SP 2, no 3. I’ve tried every option, deactivating visual designs, screen resolution to 640×480, I even runned as admin!
Also the 16bit.mode file didn’t change anything. What should I do to play that great game?

For me it worked perfectly on Windows 7 x64 when setting the compatibility mode and run as admin _on the installer_ after downloading. It will then install in compatibility mode. Neither setting compatibility mode on the installed executable nor creating a 16bit.mode file worked for me, but running the installer in compatibility mode worked for me. hth someone.

Hi there,

using Vista 64 and game won’t work for me either…
Switching to Compatibility XP SP2 has no effect, all other options (2000, 98, 95…) also have no effect. Resolution 640×480 and other options (disable visual effects…) won’t make the game run…
The game hangs up loading, quiting at about 96 percent…
Strange: Everytime I reinstall, the changes I made for the starting .exe reappear?!? Are there any registry entries that should be deleted manually?

Thanx in advance

Hey..

I just bought the german PC-Games and on the bonus DVD is your game. But unfotunately I also can’t solve the problem. Or at least I got a new one. When I use compability mode the game tries to start but then I get the pop-up “gfx/misc/loading.jpg not found! – anyway wich compability I use. Reinstall didn’t solve the problem and the file is at the right place.
Any ideas what to do next??

I’m having problems with Psycoballs too. What a pity, your games looks really cool!
