Re: Certain Scratch projects don`t work on Windows Vista Computers.

Could you post the link to the project here? We might be able to find out the problem.

It works find for me. It could be just your computer, or a weird coincidence.

Re: Certain Scratch projects don`t work on Windows Vista Computers.

Sometimes Scratch project results vary. Usually there is some patern between times it works and times it doesn't, but on rare occasions it just works when it won'ts to. I wouldn't worry too much about it, since this particular error probably only applies to this project.

'Won't work' doesn't tell me much. Exactly what error message did you get?

That's because you have to click to play and no arrows.

You can't just install Windows XP, and there is no evidence that Vista is the problem.

Indeed  smile

Often, the speed of a computer can determine whether it works or not, especially when the order of two unrelated things occurring is a determining factor. For all we know, it could be that Vista is FASTER! (I'm not biased towards Vista, in fact, quite the opposite.) Plus, definitely not worth changing your OS for a single Scratch game.

Yeah, But Windows XP on my computer works really fine. Really good.
So, I thought Downloading Windows XP (e.g. folder: C:\Windows\Download\Windowsxp.zip) is a Great idea, or Scanning your computer will work. Scan with Kaspery antivirus 6 for Windows Workstations should work.
Scan with one that duplicates the viruses should NOT work.
If none work, What version of scratch do you have? I have Scratch 1.4.
And, False. Windows Vista is the problem - There is evidence that Vista is the problem.
