Crash in Win 7 Core 2 Duo

amhodge

I have installed Game Salad on about 25 student PCs. All of them running Win 7 Core 2 Duo. Game Salad is installed fine. When trying to play a template game - for example the Space Invaders game - the app crashes. Except on one single PC which has the same setup, it doesn not crash. My i3 PC does not crash either. Below is the system error message. Any help appreciated!

@amhodge, please try to run Gamesalad as administrator (right click on shortcut, then choose run as admin).

If it does work, then you know that GS, XNA and drivers are ok, but that you have a access rights issue which sometimes happens on highly restricted user accounts.

If it does not run, then I suggest manually updating the XNA framework and maybe the graphics drivers.

Thanks @Hopscotch I've tried running as admin, no luck. Actually the default accounts on these computers is Admin. I've reinstalled latest NVidia GeForce drivers, and reinstalled XNA Framework. Game Salad crashes on all machines when attempting to play a game. It's a big issue as this means 20 K12 students here unable to use the software. The mystery is that one computer is OK. This computer has identical set-up to the others.. baffling! I've tried the 0.9 versions. I'm going to try and last 0.10 version.
Any other ideas greatly appreciated! Thanks for your help

Is GS actually installed locally on the machines or shared accross the network?
