Enjoyed playing the latest GGOTD, Elements II yesterday, but today when I tried to start the program, I got the error "Elements II has stopped working". Tried a number of times, even after a reboot. Anyone else? Win 8.1; the install went fine and so did the first day of play. The original Elements is still on here and works fine.

You should have an error reported in "Event Viewer" that might lead to a solution. Depending on your version of Windows, the same item might also be listed in "Action Center" and it can search online for a solution.

Thanks, Chris. I had checked in Event Viewer and while the failure is shown, it's with generic Event 1000 which has no further info available on the net. Just for grins, I ran the compatibility wizard and set it for Windows 7 (I'm running Windows 8.1 as I mentioned) and it seems to be working now. Still not full screen (despite the "full screen" option checked, as I mentioned in my feedback post back on the download page. Note that the original Elements works just fine on my computer and always has.
