Hi Guys

No! sorry no-one has replied with any ideas for a solution as yet! If
anyone out there can help us PLEASE, PLEASE, get in touch, we would love to
hear from you.

Why? Why? do companies release these programs - charge us - then expect the
customers to sort the problems out for them. Good job if you can get it I
say! I am beginning to hate Vista & wish I'd never bothered nothing seems to
want to work with it & although I'm not really a techi person, I can't see
what is any better than it was on XP.

If anyone does come up with anything I will post it immediately for you.

Backup your data, restore Vista from your manufacturers restore DVDs, run
all windows updates and get latest drivers, reinstall games, pray, start
games.

The game launcher is just the game thing that starts games, what happens
when you just startup the game from it's start menu icon? I mean the game
launcher isn't part of the game per say.

Best of luck. If you're still having problems, which games (just list 1 or
2) that you're having problems with, what have you tried so far to fix the
problem, what is the make and model of your computer, if it's a custom
computer what components are you using?

Gotta help us before we can help you. You might try contacting the game
makers if you're really at a loss for ideas, lots have great tech support
people on staff.

Still having problems with your Game Launcher loading in Vista? Thanks to
Oberon Media techs the problem has been resolved (at least for me). Try this:

If you are receiving the DRM activator error message do the following to
correct the issue.
1 - Left click on Start
2.- Right click on Computer
3 - Left click on Properties 4 - Left click on Advanced System Settings
5 - Under Performance click on Settings
6 - Left click on Data Performance Settings (on my computer the tab said
Data Execution Prevention)
7 - Click on TURN ON DEP FOR ESSENTIAL WINDOWS PROGRAMS AND SETTINGS ONLY.
8 - Click on Apply and then OK.

UAC: (User Account Control)
Open up Control Panel, and type in user account into the search box. You'll
see the link for "Turn User Account Control (UAC) on or off". Click it.
Uncheck the box, and reboot your computer.

Good Luck!
