Roller coaster tycoon 2 is not running on my computer laptop windows 7

I wanted to play Roller coaster tycoon 2 on my computer laptop windows 7, but whenever I try to run the game (I bought the steam game)

a message appears saying: failed to initialize the graphics system. Can someone tell me how can I run this game, I've tried everything I could think of, please help

Try to uninstall and then reinstall the game in compatibility mode?

See the developers website for compatibility with Windows 7 and if there are updates, corrections or difficulties that might ensure compatibility.

Windows 7 Compatibility Center

Check if your application software or hardware is on the list

Software:

You can also try to run the program in compatibility mode

  • Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 does not run in mode "full screen".

    I tried to change the compatibility mode for each of them and also disabled the themes and as an admin, my drivers are up to date and until the day I'm under wiindows build 7100, one know how to make the racing game in full screen, so there is not 2 inches from each side black?

    Windows 7 RC is build 7100?

    Anyway, if it is black on the sides, have you checked if the resolution of the game screen setting corresponds to your screen resolution?

    What I wanted to say, that if you use Windows 7, it is perhaps a compatibility problem, try the XP Mode Beta (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=0e8fa9b3-c236-4b77-be26-173f032f5159 ) - beware, the download is about 500 MB.

  • All computer crashes when you play Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 (Blue Blue without seeing screen?)

    When you play Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 , my laptop Toshiba Satellite A215-4757 freezes (sometimes after about half an hour, or sometimes less than 5 minutes).  The game has worked until I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit (earlier version of windows: Vista Home Premium 32-bit .)  As far as I know, all my drivers are updated and regular, programs such as Firefox and Outlook will work perfectly.  I'm not sure my other full-screen games, as I have not tried to play them again.

    I have the game in compatibility mode for XP SP2, but before that I did, the same error occurred.

    The error when I finally force close and turn on the computer named blue screen (although when the computer froze, there was no blue screen, just the image of the frozen game, and the sound was still running like nothing happened.)  I don't remember the other information contained in the error.

    Chronology of the error:

    • I opened the game and it loads fine.
    • I go through the menus and select the park that I want to play and it loads fine.
    • I'll be working or seeking / everything I do at the Park, when suddenly it freezes.
    • I turned off the computer and turn it back on.
    • Startup takes a little longer than normal.
    • Windows opens the error message (which I don't remember the details.)

    More precisely what I mean by freeze (obvious, maybe, but just try to be specific as possible):

    • No mice.
    • Without ctrl alt del ability.
    • No capacity alt tab.
    • No windows key capability.
    • Necessary to force to stop with the button on the computer.

    Any suggestions?  Also, I'm not sure what other information you need to know, so if there are more details, just ask.

    Thank you.

    Hello coasterfreak220,

    Unfortunately, Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 is not compatible with Windows 7. You must have the Windows xp mode in order to install and run it.

  • Roller Coaster Tycoon does not work

    I downloaded a torrent roller coaster tycoon a legal site (177 MB). the game starts but when I click on 'play', the game closes. What can be the problem? Pls answer.

    I don't think Roller Coaster Tycoon is free and so where - ever can be downloaded starting probably is not legally give to you, or is probably NOT Roller Coaster Tycoon.  However, you can try to run the game in compatibility mode.  Try the option Windows 98.  Instructions available here

    Hi, Im getting this CRC error message when I tried to install a game called Roller Coaster Tycoon. Now I don't have the disc, because I

    After the foregoing:

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and


    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and the
    correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

    Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
    nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

    DevManView - free - an alternative to the standard Windows Device Manager, which displays
    all devices and their properties in flat table, instead of the tree viewer

    I hope this helps.

  • WRT54G v.5 will remain not connected to the new laptop / Windows 7 Premium

    WRT54G v.5 will remain not connected to the new laptop / Windows 7 Premium. It works continuously with a cycle detection, connection, loss of connection; detection, connection, loss of connection, etc... The router works through this cycle, basically acting as if I disconnected and then reconnected to the power to reset, it disrupts my Internet connection to my Wired iMac and wireless, another office to the floor. Paid for Linksys support today and through remote access, he put up a new network on my desktop (iMac). After finishing, the problem still exists. When I told him that the problem had not been corrected, he said just wait an hour or two and it should work itself. She, of course, did not himself. Any ideas out there?

    Nevermind - I seem to have solved the problem with a simple firmware. Funny how the Linksys technician support don't think to ask what version of the router I have or suggest that I should try to upgrade firmware first. However, he is quite good at trying to upsell me for a new router instead of trying to help me solve the problem I had. It makes me want to go buy Netgear next time, thanks a lot!
