HI,

Macromedia Projector is a utility from Adobe (formerly Macromedia) which
bundles up a Flash visual presentation into a stand-alone EXE file, so you
can display the images on a PC without the Flash Player installed. Your
anatomy CD-ROM probably used Macromedia Projector to display its anatomy
pictures.

Macromedia Projector is not compatible with Vista. In order to run the
program, you need to set the Compatibility to a previous version of Windows.

In Explorer, find the main EXE file on the CD-ROM which runs the anatomy
program. Right-click the EXE file and choose Properties from the context
menu. The Properties dialogue will appear. Choose the Compatibility Tab.
Check the checkbox in Compatibility Mode, for "Run this program in
compatibility mode for:" and choose and earlier version of Windows - Windows
98 would be a good one to try. Then click OK to save the changes. Now
double-click the EXE file, to launch the program.

Once you have set the Compatibility, Windows Vista should "remember" to run
the program in compatibility mode, so hopefully you only need to do this
once.

Try rebooting the computer. If that doesn't help, Reinstall Macromedia Projector and then reboot the computer. It should almost definitely work after that.

Best Regards,

James

Please post your system specs and the full error message.

At what point does the error appear? Is it the same point each time?

Does your computer meet the game's minimum requirements (especially the graphics card)?

Have you installed the latest chipset drivers, graphics driver, DirectX and MS updates?

Have you made any hardware upgrades recently? __________________ roger

Right click on the desktop shortcut to the game, go to "Property", click on the "Compatiblity" tab and put a check in "Run this program in compatiblity mode for:, now try all the choices in the drop-down box (win95, win98/win me,etc. etc) one at a time 'til it works. Mine worked when I selected Windows Nt 4.0 service pack 5.

Hi,

I have had same problem last time. What I did was run Program Compatibility Wizard and next set compatibility to win98 (dont remember if that is the one I choose, but you can test it). No idea what does it have to do with it, but it solved problem in my case. Hope it will help you.
