No games work
I just installed GTR 2 for (dvd) and it won't start in regular mode, admin
mode, xp sp2 mode.

See attached.
http://img15.imgspot.com/?u=/u/06/36...1167534012.gif

I even did a complete o/s reload of Vista Ultimate fresh instead of upgrade
from MCE 2005 and the problem still persists.

I tried in XP SP2 compatibility mode, still gives the same error.

This even happened with Need for Speed Carbon demo too. Strange.

Re: No games work
Hmm,

I'm getting this error when I try and click on it.

HTTP 500
This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are
visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.

I'm using the original that vista installed. I did not manually install any
drivers.

Re: No games work
GTR2 works great for me. Not much help to you, but I can verify that in
works with Vista.
