    The following is a list of the common problems:

    2, Drivers.

    3, Dirty install.

    4, Win ME.

    5, Seems to run on most cards OK on most cards if they are at least 4MB memory.

    Seems to run best on 600+woo woo woo PCU, 128MB+ memory and a 16MB+ video card.

    #4 could be a problem for me but hopefully not.

    Hi Charlie,

    I think a problem most people are having is not prepping prior to the install. Mainly having a cluttered HD that has never been DeFraged, not doing a clean and safe install, not washing the CD prior to using and etc.

    You are suppose to wash a CD before you use it? Makes sense, but I'd like to hear your reasons why, if you wouldn't mind.

    Rick,

    Yes it helps a lot. A lot of times there is a film on the CD that the laser does not like to read through. Just use a drop of dish soap and warm water. Run it around with your fingertips, rince ant pat dry with a soft cloth.
