I hate computer problems. (But then again, dont' we all?)

I got DB Pro for Christmas, but it's not working on my computer. Right now I have an Athlon XP 1800+ with Windows XP installed on it. It's got a Radeon 7000 video card.

The first few times I load DB Pro and compile everything, it works fine. Then after a while, clicking on the shortcuts no longer works. Even using the CD doesn't load the program. The only way I can open DB Pro is to double click on a .dba or .dbpro file.
And that's not the end of it. I sometimes get warnings that the compiler can't be validated. And the debug program doesn't work half the time. Is anyone else having these problems, or do I need to reinstall Windows (for the 4th time in 2 days)?

Thanx a lot for your help guys.

P.S. How do you get that little ninja smily icon?

I've had no such problems on my 3 computers, so it might be best to do a full scandisk, just in case the hard drives are dodgy.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

I'd suggest checking your Hard Disk for errors...
also a reinstall incase you have attempted to "tamper" with the registration entry to subside the CD check

Plus there are 3 Upgades for the IDE available on Real Game Tools site which might solve the compatibility issues.
Feel free to email [url=mailto:[email protected]]Lee Bamber[/url] or [url=mailto:[email protected]]Guy Savoie[/url] with your problems

Moonblade,

Make sure you have Final Patch3.1 install for DBPro. Next make sure you have SP1 for WinXP installed.
