Top-score Problem

[rskhanna]

HI, i just got the top score cd, and it wont run on my computer. All my other programs work, but this one wont start, it says that I have to put the cd in the cd-drive, and I do, but it wont work. Anyone had this problem and how to fix it. I have installed it 3 times, with uninstalling it. But, nothing is working. I e mailed the top score people, but they have not got back to me yet. ANy info, would be great.

Are you getting any specific error messages?

One likely problem is that you do not have enough free hard disk space. Clean up your hard disk and allow some extra space, say about 100MB free. Then reinstall the program.

If this does not work, and you are running norton antivirus, make sure that you have "unchecked" the box that says "Script Blocking On" Script blocking causes many notable problems on the topscore cd.

Hope this helps

I have two computers; one that runs windows 98 and the other with win XP. Topscore did not run on the XP, but I'm not sure it was because of the OS. I use the XP as a slave in a network, so that may have further complicated the issue.

Another thing: make sure you run topscore from the programs menu and only after you cancel setup. Often your computer will try to reinstall the program when you put the cd in your drive (especially if you have an older computer). Cancel the installation after you have put in the cd and then go to the programs menu to open it the normal way. It's a backwards a.s way of doing things, but it works for me.
Don't know if any that helps, but there's my two cents worth.
