How do I fix this?
Comes up on a Big Fish Game.
Game played well for ages then this happened.
Have uninstalled and reinstalled both the Games Manager and the Game - no joy.

One of my family have a Windows 7 laptop. One particular Big Fish game causes an access violation error when trying to run it. Googling shows that these kind of errors are common with Big Fish Games. Their website has some steps to try to resolve, but I didn't manage to solve this one. :-/
