I have installed the game and when I'm trying to run I got the message starting application cannot run.

Why? This game is bought. It is original?

What I"m supposed to do in order to run it?

This game had a problem running if you use AVG as your antivirus, although the latest version of AVG is supposed to have corrected this.

What antivirus programs are you running?

@Marian

I'm running Norton Antivirus.

What I'm supposed to do in order to run it?

Thank you

Okay, so it's not AVG that's causing the problem. Other than making sure your antivirus or other possible background programs aren't running when you start So Blonde, I can't really offer any other suggestions, other than to check and make sure that your computer meets all the system requirements, along with making sure that your video card has the latest drivers.

I'm sure someone else will come along who will have additional advice to offer.

@Marian

Thank you I;m so unhappy that sure I will die

It's always so disappointing to get a new game, only to discover that for one reason or another it doesn't just start up and run; I understand.

Hang in there--someone will be able to help.

(I was in Athens when I was 10 years old).

@Marian,

I have checked all my drives and they are up to date, so as you understand how I Feel.

You were on vacation in Athens or you lived here?

Thank you for everything, I really aprecciated it

Did you try and turn off Norton. Some folks had problems with that one too. They even had to go to the extreme of uninstalling Norton and then install So Blonde in order to get it to work.
You can try that and then install Norton again afterwards.

No I'm not going to do it. Why to unistall Norton. It is my protector .No way. I prefer to throw it at the carbage and cry for the € that I have payed for it. They have to be more responsible and create a game that it will run smoothly.Of course I will notified all my friends to stay away from it. Pitty another one has created a game that it will run under...they have only imagine.

Where did you buy it? Can you return it?
If not, see if you can trade it.
Don't just throw it out.

@Jenny

I will try with Play-Com. Thank you for support

Hi GIOVANNA

I use Norton Internet Security 2009 and So Blonde installed and played for me alright

Have you tried contacting Norton Technical Support ?? I have always found them to be helpful

Cheers.

@Mad

How can the people of Nordon help me when I have a problem with a game. I do not understand? Can they solve my problem?

Hi Giovanna
Which version of So Blonde are you using ? Is it english or German or what ? What are your computer specs ? Are you using Xp or Vista ?

Cathy

Hi GIOVANNA

If you tell Norton that you think your Norton security package is preventing you from playing a game, they might recommend that you alter one of your security settings, and they would know which setting it would be safe to alter.

That is what I meant

The quickest way would be to telephone them but I don't know how expensive that would be for you.

[I have both telephoned AND emailed them for help in the past and have always been assisted.]

Cheers.

@Cathy

I'm using the English one. My computers runs on XP

@Mad

Sorry but I cannot call them. I'm a very poor lady and I do no think I ca afford it. Thank you anyway

Hi Giovanna
Please check your email.
Cathy

@Cathy1

I have not received anything. Would you be kind enough to send me it again.

Thank you

Check it now. I am using the email address that is in your profile.

I'm also having a problem installing So Blond. It loads almost all of the game and then I get a message-
"An error occured during file transfer. Please ensure there is no default on your DVD ROM then reinstall."
What does that mean? I used to be blond but now I'm gray
Thanks for your time

I think it means your computer can't copy a file from the DVD drive to the hard drive. It might be being caused by an antivirus deleting what it considers to be a suspicious file. Do you have AVG antivirus?

Yes, I do have AVG antivirus so I will turn it off just to load the game and see what happens. Life would be soooo much simpler if these error messages could be in plain English rather than computor gobbled gook, don't you agree?

***Here's*** a thread at Adventuregamers where other people had the problem, so you're not alone. They do have a solution, but you have to uninstall AVG.

I had the same problem but I didn't have to uninstall AVG. All I did was start up AVG and turn off the Resident Shield and installed the game, and turned it back on after the installation was complete. Hope you get it working.
