big fish games

[hcb1]

Hello'

I play a lot of hidden object games of which Big Fish Games has many. I can not download big fish games however, as they freeze my PC everytime. I can download from most any other games and have no problem. My windows XP is running with  service pack 3. My friend has the exact same operating system and the exact same problem.
I have tried contacting Big Fish support but no luck there either. I would really like to play these games, can anyone suggest what might correct the problem?

Thanks, HCB

did you bye these games, or did you "pirate them"
if so that is probably your problem
What is your computer specs?

Hi and thank you for your response. The games are on many sites but I use
most freegames.com. These games are a full version download with ads or you can buy them as well. My PC is Windows XP,Home with service pack 3. Celeron (R) CPU 2.40 GHz. 512 megabites of ram.

Like I was saying before, I can download and play any other hidden object game as long as it has nothing to do with " big fish" I hope the computer info provided is sufficient,

I'll look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks, HCB

Ignore the post above. If both you and your friend experience the same problem then I suggest the issue is with Big Fish Games, not your system. Contacting the site / software provider is the correct first step.

Hi Allan;

Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. I have tried a few times to contact BIG FISH games without success but I will keep trying.

Thanks Again

Does the site provide a set of minimum specs to play the games?  If not, email the site to find out.

I'm guessing your processor and OS are fine but it could be a RAM or video card problem.  I'm guessing again that if you only have 512 MB of RAM you probably only have 64 MB of on board video RAM, and that's not enough for some games.

Hi

I think you may be right. My friends os is the same as are ram etc. I will try to reach Big Fish Games again.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi Jason;

Thanks for your reply.  I  finally found the big fish site I needed and it stated there that you had to have direct X??? I downloaded it and found that all the games load faster than they did. I didn't get an opportunity to try a BF games after I added the direct X...but hope to get time thisevening.

Thanks Again
