  • 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.

  • Zoo Tycoon 2 won't uninstall/install?

    I have Windows 7.

    Bought ZT2 Zookeepers Collection earlier. I installed it is fine, with a couple of expansion packs. I uninstalled, then went to re - install. When I clicked on install and it behaves like his will install but said "games to uninstall all saved and elements?" that appears when uninstall you! So I check mark those. Tried to install it again, but guard telling me that it is not uninstalled. Tried many things to make it work, but it won't. A I more resemble something? Otherwise, I'll have to eat the money I paid for this stupid game. AND I can't go and buy a new one because for some reason any my computer/game says it is uninstalled, but it really isn't.
    Help!
    Thanks :)

    I was able to overcome this problem by following these steps for Windows 7. First, go to the control panel and uninstall all programs associated with Zoo Tycoon 2. Then, type "regedit" in the search box after clicking on the button 'start '. You can search "zoo" and delete the entries that correspond to the "CLEAR" Zoo Tycoon 2, nothing else. Then go to the computer, then the drive Local (c), then Program Files (x 86), then the information of InstallShield. A list of folders will fill. Look at the dates and try to determine where you originally installed Zoo Tycoon 2 and delete these folders. So try and re - install Zoo Tycoon 2 and it should install correctly. Apparently, the developer, Blue Fang Games, neglected aspects of the use of InstallShield and program still considers that it is installed by looking at the InstallShield folder that was created when you initially installed the game! By deleting this file, it will install then.
  • Zoo Tycoon 2 - cannot run

    My daughter has Zoo Tycoon 2 Ultimate Collection. It runs on a 32-bit computer Win 7 with 3 GB of RAM. It worked very well for a long time. After a few months of not playing, she inserted the CD and launched the program. The screen 'Run', 'Install', 'website' appeared. She clicks on 'run '. After a few moments, a dialog box appears that says: "Please insert the Zoo Tycoon Disc 1 and click OK to run the Game" or something similar. Of course, the disk is already in the drive. Re-insert the disc or by clicking OK without reinserting the disc means nothing.

    I can browse the files on the CD. The player seems to work fine - it plays DVD.

    Angry girl blaming the help desk (me). Suggestions welcome!

    Hi Scott,.

    Generally you encounter this message if the installation of the game is not over and that you are trying to read. You can uninstall the game completely using the Windows Cleanup utility, and then try to reinstall the game and check if that helps.

    Download the utility from the link below, install and run it, and then select from the list of items that you want to uninstall the application.

    http://download.Microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2.exe

    Before installing the computer clean boot and then continue the installation. To put the computer in a clean boot follow the link below.

    Note: Once you have finished installing, follow step 7 to start the computer in normal startup.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • 2 Zoo Tycoon: Ultimate Collection will not work?

    Hello

    I had first of all of Zoo Tycoon 2 and I installed and it has played without problems. Then I bought Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection and installed (with no problems) and I played for a while now, probably almost a year. He used to run without any problems at all, but a few days ago, I put Zoo Tycoon: Ultimate Collection disc 1 to and clicked on play. I've been waiting for centuries, and nothing came so I clicked it again and he said "another instance of startup.exe is already running" I tried to restart my computer, but it came again. I searched on the internet it and it said to press ctrl + alt + delete and delete something, so I did that and tried to run again. This time came a different message: "Please insert the right CD-ROM, select OK and restart the application.". but the 1 disc is already in the drive. I tried this on the internet, and he says that the solution is to insert the correct disc, but I did it? There was also a solution to make a right-click on the icon, click Properties and change the compatibility mode to windows vista, or something, but this isn't an option on mine. I checked the compatibility on my computer and it says that the two Zoo Tycoon 2 + Zoo Tycoon: Ultimate Collection is not compatible, but it was compatible before and I never had this problem. If there is a solution that works, I would be really grateful

  • Zoo Tycoon 2

    I bought my grandson the game PC Zoo Tycoon 2: extinct animals Expansion Pack and didn't see the message of "Zoo Tycoon 2 to play the calls."  No problem; so I buy the game Zoo Tycoon.  My problem is: I can't find a Zoo Tycoon 2 game that supports Vista.  It is still available, and if not, can you download something that drives?  Surely they wouldn't do a Vista sustainable game which requires a game you can't play.  I can't found.

    Hello barbara12,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  As long as your version of Vista is 32-bit, you should be able to run Zoo Tycoon 2.  There have been some problems reported with computers have 4 GB of RAM as well.  Once you install the game there is a update available on the site Web of Microsoft Game, you may want to consider to download and install.  Here is the link:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/games/PC/ZooTycoon2.aspx

    In addition, if you have display problems there are an article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base that deals with these issues and how to fix them.  Here is the link:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/889367

    If your Vista is 64 bit, let us know in your answer and we can help you address this problem.  I hope this information is useful.
