For some reason, TimeBeaker keeps crashing on my wife’s computer (XP Pro SP2) with an eGate nVidia GeForce 7300 PCI Express video card. It changes the screen resolution, starts to load, shows loading 1% for a minute, and then crashes to a blue screen with text. Unfortunately, the screen shows very briefly and pressing pause or print screen does not interupt the automatic reboot process. The only thing I can think of to get an idea of what the mrssage was telling me would be to take a picture in the brief second it comes up.
Almost all the other games work fine (with the exception of The SIMs deluxe, which always hangs.) Any ideas would be appreciated.

Well, I do seem to be having problems today. First I had the (unresolved) problem reported on an XP machine, then, when I installed it on a Vista Premium laptop, the game seemed to install fine, but when I go to play it the targets and the powerups are entirely black. The area on the right side of the playing board shows colors, as do the ball and background, but the pad, and target blocks in the actual playing area are all black. I wonder if it has something to do with shadowing or shading which might be used to create the 3-D effect???? I do notice that Anti-Aliasing is not available (greyed out) on the Vista machine.
If anyone finds a solution to their problem with this program please post your ideas.
