• Why can't I save my game on viva piñata?

  It is said at the beginning that I need to make a user profile in order to save my game and press HOME to do this.  But I can't make a profile of the user.  I tried pressing the HOME button on my keyboard, but it does nothing.

  I had the same problem running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

• Profile of Viva Piñata

  Recently bought Viva Pinata.  The original key (which has been well tested) does not work in the game, preventing a profile not to be used.  Windows Live works well for other games.  I noticed fixes for Windows 7, but nothing for XP.  Thoughts?

• Satellite M60-162: problem gambling (game)

  Hello
  I bought a Satellite M60-162 to use for work and a bit of entertainment (including games).
  It happens that all types of game, I installed (Medal of honor, C & C Generals, Nba live 2005, MS Flight simulator 2004) breaks down when it is run (just click on 'play' and after a while, the game crashes). The installation program ends normally, but every game crashes.
  The only game that works is 'The elder scrolls III - Morrowind '.
  I have updated with patches - if available - all games without any profit.
  I also updated the graphics (Ati mobility radeon 700) driver and installed the DirectX 9 .0c. Nothing has changed.
  Finally, I ran a test for the graphics system (3D Mark 360) to check if there were hardware problems. All tests have passed.
  I don't know what I could do to remedy this situation.
  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Hello

  Believe me it's not easy to say why it happens.
  It could be a driver problem or a software problem (game). The only way to know why it happens is to test the device with different settings. Try using a lower screen resolution during the games. Try to change the game settings.

  Windows XP performance settings that affect the visual appearance of the operating system, most of the games have buried in their menus of Options graphic settings. The trick is to find them.

  I found a very useful and interesting article how to optimize the parameters of play for performance and looks. Please click the link:

  Step 1:

  Hello NAVEENENVY.

  I found a YouTube video that covers installing the game on Windows 8 by using the compatibility and disk mode.  Here is the link.  This is the method you tried to install the game using the styling?  If Yes, what is the error you receive?  If this isn't what you tried, let me know the result.

  I'll keep an eye out for your answer.  I wish you a nice day!

• Game Gamehouse to Vista 64 issues

  I have had installation problems with most of the games from Gamehouse and have been emailing them back.  I finally got on the phone with them and they told me that they do not support vista 64 and I need a fix of vista for 64-bit compatibility.  So I put "fix vista for 64-bit compatibility" in a google search and the first on the list is the microsoft Download Center and is an update to Windows Vista for systems-KB938194 x 64-based.
  I checked the system requirements and it does not support my operating system-Windows Vista Home premium 64-bit.  I tried to install it and pops up this message-"the update does not apply to your system."  I checked all my updates and KB938194 isn't on the list, so it's not like it has already been installed.  Help, please.  Thank you.

  Hello Miss Pugs,

  Thank you for posting.

  They are assuming that when you download the game it will on your desktop as it does in XP.  Vista has its own download folder to the downloads go.  You will need to run the installer in compatibility mode when you install the game.  You can get to your download folder by clicking the ORB/start, and then click your user name.  Once there, you will see the Downloads folder that will hold all your downloads (unless you change the location where files download on)

  Remember that it is a fix temporary until Gamehouse free updates or patches to their games. Zack
