Ok... I've read it all... tried it all... I STILL HAVE THAT QUESTVIEWER error after 10 000 re-install, registry cleaning, vcthingy re-install, etc, etc, etc,.... I've send multiple emails to Customer Service without any result...

What to do now???

BTW, I have downloaded the version from shipsim.com... It sucks big time!

This is of cource a bit of topic, but Traddles can you or some one else who knows about this explain for me why SSE works fine and run smooth on full graphic adjusments, with my laptop. I have a Geforce 240M and it run on 2,13 GHz. The laptop have 4 GB DD3 memory and 1000 GB harddisc, but the latest two should not have so much to do with as I have understood. It is an Acer Aspire 7738G. But why does my "slow" laptop run the game fine?

[Traddles]

Unfortunately I do not understand why this should be the case wiqvist. I am not a computer expert but a retired seafaring man. I cannot help on this matter, I'm sorry to say.

Traddles.

Traddles, thank you for your answer. And there is no meaning to use time to work out why the game works well on my laptop, there is better things to use the time on, hehe.

Traddles you can be a retired sailor with computer expertise. When my grandmother became 90, there was another guest who was 92 and he was creating a webpage about police history in the town he had worked. So there is never too late to do something new, hehe.
Take good care and I hope the game will work for you Spunvince.
