• Unable to play Zoo Tycoon 2: "the color scheme for has been changed to basic windows.

  I know that this has been answered before, but the answers were not useful or difficult to follow. I have Windows 7 and that's all I know not on my laptop. I am the admin of it so I have access to administration options if I have to.

  OK, so this is the usual scenario you install - very well no problem - you click play and it comes up with this, black to hot flashes and then it does not load the game.

  Things I've tried:

  -Uninstalling and reinstalling

  -Restart the computer after installation

  -Make sure my computer is compatible with the game (typed in "system requirements lab and went to this website: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/ ")

  -Clicking on it a lot of time by pure frustration

  -Try to follow the instructions. I did: start > personalization > display > change display settings > avancΘs > Troubleshoot > nothing. The button on that I'm supposed to click is gray.

  Can you help me? What should I do?

  Thank you

  You don't download a Compatibility Mode...

  Uninstall Zoo Tycoon 2...

  Then place the Zoo Tycoon DVD in the drive and if she tries to autorun, cancel it.

  Go to the icon of the DVD drive in 'Computer', do a right click and open/explore the DVD.

  Find the configuration file, right click and select Properties.

  Check the box "Run as Administrator" and then close the Properties window.

  Now, do a right click the installer again and select 'Troubleshoot compatibility.

  When the game is installed, you can locate the icon of the game, right click, go to properties and check the "run as Administrator box" as you did with the installation configuration file.

  XP mode would be worthless because the graphics driver in XP mode is not able to handle the load graphic

• Want to launch Microsoft Zoo Tycoon game without CD

  Original title: Running Zoo Tycoon without a CD player.

  I would like to be able to run Zoo Tycoon without access to a physical CD drive. I use a netbook, I would prefer not to use a reader of Cd external, such that it is annoying. Is there a way I can run Zoo Tycoon without the CD?

  Yes indeed it is possible. You can find the software to download the game on a "virtual drives" say for instance you have your C: and D: drives, well with the software, you can creat E: F: and etc, they act like cd players, you insert your game, movie, dvd, whatever you want and it records everything what it as one. ISO file. and you can play without the cd, as I know that I don't know if it's legal, but it is possible.

• I have a new idea of Zoo Tycoon game! (Microsoft Game Studios)

  I was playing Zoo Tycoon today and I thought of an idea to bring the Zoo Tycoon but better! I tried to go to zootycoon.com and bluefang.com, but they both stopped, I guess because they closed.

  In any case, my idea is to bring the Zoo Tycoon. Here is a list of what I thought:
  1 includes everything in Zoo Tycoon 1 and 2, including all the expansion packs.
  2 mode Guest, where you can walk around as a guest to interact with objects and animals should be included, but you should be able to interact with customers, too. For example, you could go up to a guest, press the SPACEBAR, and have a little chat with them, as to seek their advice on the zoo, their favorite animal, things like that.
  3 Add more animal-like extinct animals, animals (unicorns) Make-Believe, tons of animals!
  4. When you are playing in free play, you should have unlimited money as you do in Zoo Tycoon 2 and have everything unlocked for you, even things that need a cheat code.
  5. There should be a lot more like roller coasters, ferris wheels and rides.
  6. in guest mode, you should be able to interact with objects, as in the slide, you should be able to press the space bar and down actually it.
  7. you should be able to turn into an animal. I know it's a little out there, but think about it! It would add humor to the game! You could run as a lion invited scaring, but even not make them hurt!
  I have many more ideas, but it would take forever to write them all! Comment what you think of this idea to get Blue Fang Games (TM), Microsoft TM and Tycoon (TM) Zoo, game all together again! It's like when I was a little girl and I want to play Zoo Tycoon all the time! It would really bring back memories for many people! Then please comment if you have other ideas or simply to tell me what you think of this idea. I'd like to hear your opinions! Thank you! Bye!

• Help to install Zoo Tycoon 2 "Zookeeper Collection" on Win 7 64 bit?

  Howdy!

  I tried several times to install Zoo Tycoon 2 'guardians of Zoo Collection' on my PC with WIN 7 64 bit, but for the life of me, I can't make it work. Everytime I try to start the game I get an error box saying I don't have enough graphics memory. Of course this is not the case because I have a Nvidia Ge Force 8800 GT with 256 MB of ram with a quad core and 8 GB RAM. So it's not like my system it cannot manage. It worked fine when I had Windows XP as well so I'm a loser. Can someone help me please? Thanks in advance.

• How can I get a replacement of Zoo Tycoon 2 Zookeeper Collection drive?

  A relative of the United States was made a Zoo Tycoon 2: Zookeeper Collection (PC) as a gift some time ago. The problem is that a disc does not.

  I can see, he is not even scratched, but computers do not recognize properly. I tried on different computers and it just doesn't work. Disc two, however, works perfectly. The problem is not on my computer because I tried the disk on other computers, sometimes I've been able to see the contents of the floppy disk and sometimes only the Volume name, but nothing else (obviously never run automatically, by clicking a configuration had no effect either).

  I also tried xcopy the files, but it gives me a cyclic redundancy error. The disc is clearly damaged or defective.

  Since I don't live in the United States, I don't know how to get a replacement drive. I tried the support online site and it asks to install a PID that I have no idea on since I can't find it on my drives, nor the game case and I cannot get it. It has a certificate of authenticity, for what it's worth.

  I live in Buenos Aires in Argentina. I would be grateful if someone could guide me so that I can get a replacement shipped to my home drive.

  Thank you
