   I installed subject software OK. However, running it proved to be impossible. The "LOADING" screen comes up OK but within 15 - 20 secs. my machine shuts down and restarts in disk checking mode. EVERY TIME I'VE ACTIVATED THIS SOFTWARE. Five times now. It's not critical for me and I'm simply uninstalling. However, would have been nice to get a look at the thing. In case it may be of use, my system summary is;

   WhiteRabbit posted a good explaination on the software Comments page. If I had read it first, I might not have commented here, but I think he was posting at about the same time. Looks like the problem is that my graphics card only has 64 MB memory - about half of what it needs these days.
