The games I have for VP-only (like Paragon, Flash Gordon) work perfectly. But when I try to start any VpinMame game like Alien Poker (my all-time favourite) or Black Knight 2000, the game just locks up in the script. It loads the table graphics/editor, but when I try to run the game with F5, the script file appears and gives me error message. I already installed all Visual Basic .dll files but it doesn't help. Maybe I should install something else too???

I have the tables and all other files on CD, and everything works perfectly in my work computer, so I haven't made any mistakes installing it.

All help would be appreciated. If I can't play Alien Poker soon, I go nuts. :-)

Thanks guys.

You need to post the error message you are getting it could be to do with shiny balls or something.Have you got the latest vbs file (currently 2.3)
You could also try to `rem` out the offending line in the script.Im also quite new to this pinball scene.I dont claim to have any knowledge with scripting if all else fails try posting the question on the following forum http://www.vpforums.com/ a lot of the best designers use this site for Q&A.GOOD LUCK.

Look at Microsofts technical support page:
