I tried that, didnt work.
And I even went to the Creatures2 website that Patti MacLeod suggested and
that solution didnt work either.
I'm never going to be able to play this game, and it's my favorite computer
game.
Please Help!!!
:
Hi TranquilFlame,
If that error pops up again, open Task Manager and see if Creature2
is running in the list of processes. If it is, END TASK it and try again.

| Thanks Jimmy, that got me a step closer to playing my game.
| Once I replaced the file, I was able to install Creatures2.
| But now when I try to play Creatures2 this message pops up:
|
| An Error was detected during startup. Creatures2 may not function correctly.
| Please restart your machine and try again.
|
| Then if I click the creatures icon again this message pops up:
|
| Creatures2 appears to be already running. If this is not the case please
| restart your machine and try again.
|
| Oviously, I've tried restarting my computer many times, and it doesnt work.
|
| Please HELP!!!!
