• Problem running the Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection

  I just installed a fresh copy of Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection on my laptop with windows 7 and can not enforce. Whenever I try to start the program (after waiting a few minutes) it comes up with the message-

  "Insert the Zoo Tycoon 2: ultimate collection disc 1 into your CD-ROM drive, select ok and restart application."

  I already have disk 1 in and I tried 2 other drives as well, but it still does not work. I have re-installed twice now and checked that my computer meets the requirements - what it does, but I still can't get it to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

• Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection Disc 3 error

  I bought Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection on amazon.com and I'm having a problem installing. Setup cross disk 1 and 2 with no problems, but it does not seem to recognize the disc 3. I put it in drive and it just keeps popping up a message to insert disk 3.  I read everywhere that it was a known issue and there is that you will need to obtain a replacement CD-ROM. This disc is still available today? If so, how can I get it?

• Zoo Tycoon 2 Ultimate Collection will not work

  I just bought the ultimate Collection of Zoo Tycoon 2 and installed on my Windows 7 computer. I tried to set the compatibility mode to run on Windows XP Service Pack 2 and also tried to run as an administrator. I even uninstalled and reinstalled and still does not work. Initially my desktop theme has changed to the generic (which most games do when they start to load) and then all of a sudden he would return to normal and nothing happened. But after the change in compatibility mode, it now gives me an error saying to insert disk 1... Of course, disc 1 is inserted exactly as it appears in the computer in the list of drive for drive E, my cd-rom drive. Of course, it was a waste of $40. I would like a refund please.

  For anyone interested, I got it works by setting the compatibility mode to Windows Vista.

  Right-click on the game .exe file, go to properties. On the Compatibility tab, check run this program in compatibility mode for:, and select Windows Vista from the selection menu.

  b. Select the Compatibility tab

  c. place a check next to run this program in compatibility mode and select the operating system in the drop-down list.

• 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
