[quackle] Computer geek needed!

[Ben Withers]

I posted the following note last week to quackle, and then to cgp and ospd and didn’t receive a single response, which is quite unusual—the other few times I’ve had technical questions, I’ve received several responses.  Anyway, I’m trying again:   I just bought an ultraportable laptop, a 2002-03 vintage Fujitsu p-2110, with an XP-Pro OS.  I installed Office applications without difficulty and they work fine.  Internet Explorer and wireless connection to my desktop router work fine.  I installed and ran LeXpert without difficulty.       Download and installation of Quackle and Zyzzyva seemed to go smoothly, but when I double click the icon for either, I quickly get a dialogue box with the ubiquitous  "??????? has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience." error message.  Is this a known problem? Is there a setting I need to change or something else I need to do so that I can run these programs?  I know that others successfully run these apps on XP-Pro.  Since I bought it used, I wondered if the previous owner might have made some setting change which could cause this problem.       I'd appreciate any help on this-especially since the primary reason I bought this computer was to have something small and light I could toss in my Scrabble bag, but still run Quackle, Zyzzyva, and LeXpert, surf the web, and do email.       Thanks,   Ben Withers   SPONSORED LINKS Parker brother board game Child board game Monopoly board game Milton bradley board games Collectible board game Scrabble board game YAHOO!
