Hi Braden,

What is the operating system installed on your computer?

You can try to uninstall and reinstall the game and see if that solves the problem. Follow the link given below to uninstall the game.

Uninstall or change a program

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/uninstall-or-change-a-program

If you try to play the game on Windows 7, this may not work as there is no information on the compatibility of the game. You try to install the game in compatibility mode and check if that helps. To install a program in compatibility mode follow the link below.

  • I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64-bit, with 8 GB RAM and when I try to start Zoo Tycoon 2, he won't play, said that I have no memory system.

    I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64 - bit, with 8 GB of RAM, and when I try to run Zoo Tycoon 2, I get the following error message:

    You need at least 256 MB of system memory to run Zoo Tycoon 2. (0Mo detected)

    Y at - it a patch? I have read many "Workaround" and none of them work. I tried to run in Windows XP compatibility mode and it didn't work.

    Hey tprefling,
     
    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
     
    Right-click on the zt.exe file and choose "Run as Administrator" to launch the program.
     
    See if you are able to play the game.

    If this does not work, turn your computer to clean the start State and see if the fgame plays very well.

    To put your computer in a clean boot, follow these steps:
     
    Note: If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
     
    1. sign the computer by using an account with administrator rights.
     
    2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
     
    3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)
     
    4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.
    Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
     
    5. click OK and then click on restart.
     
    For more information about the clean boot, see the link below:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
     
    In addition, change the size of virtual memory and see that helps. For more information, see:
