    Go to Longbow2's Program Files and try to do the following to all .exe files.

    Right Click them and go to Properties.
    In the Compatibility Tab, make sure the check box is Checked for Run this program in Compatibility mode for Windows 2000

    This is assuming you have Windows XP. What version of Windows do you have?

      Running ME   The one site ive been reading says it has to do with having to much memory installed is why longbow will not run it needs to less than 366MB

          Do you think this may be important?
