I am having the same problem that was reported some time ago on the Windows 7 thread. I tried the edit as posted below but I still cannot play the game. I still get the "blue" screen. When I get to the part to change the rate from 0 to 60, and I try to save, it says "Access Denied." Is there a workaround for this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
"Scratches installed, but trying to play the game caused a BSOD and a memory dump. Upsydaisy reported the same result on her newly installed Windows 7. I tried playing both from a full installation and playing from the disk - same result.
EDIT for Scratches. Inland and I found a work-around posted by the game developer. You must edit the Scream.CFG file. To accomplish this in Windows 7, go to C:/Program Files/Nucleosys/Scratches. Find the Scream.CFG file and right click. Select Properties and from within that window, change the Open With option to either Notepad or Word Pad. Change the Rate from 0 to 60. Save the file, exit and restart the game."
