Great! Now I can't get into the game at all. I click play it flashes, crashes and it's no where to be found. I have to shut down BFG through the task manage because it says a game is running if I click play again. After several tries I uninstalled, reinstalled two other games I had on there need to be re-activated. UGH!!!!

Is anyone else going through this today?

No,not like that, smitty. I'm setting the game aside for a rainy day -- I think I'll have to start all over again with a new profile, and make sure I get through the gazebo/lake/garden section all at once before quitting.

Becky that
s what I meant in my reply. In that box is the lock of hair I didn't get and had to start over. From starting over and changing my name all is well. You must finish the "examine items" or start over evidently

Hi Smitty145. I had the problem you are having with the BFG saying another game was already running. I had to shut down my computer to get anything to work. I uninstalled it several times and it still wouldn't work. Then I went to my 'control panel' and removed it from there and then reinstalled it from BFG manager and then started up with a new character name and it all played just fine to the end. Dunno if this will work for you but it's worth a try.


WARNING! This person is extremely blonde...please type SLOWLY.

Hi Ana

Thanks for your help.

One of the best games in a while for me.


Prices are going up everywhere except in our incomes.

Great game. Story driven and well-told. As worthwhile as any CE game that's been offered in recent months. HO scenes aren't too difficult. No hint limit, but refresh is slow on Hint function. One of the best I've played this year.

I don't understand why I can play this game. Is there anyone else who still can't get this game to open?

Hi, Flo!

I just launched my Game Manager to play another game and there is a message that an update is available for "Women in White". If you didn't receive that message, try uninstalling the game by clicking on the trash can to the right of it in your Game Manager and then reinstalling. You should then get the latest version and, hopefully, will be able to play it.

Thanks Susie,

That's one thing I never seen in all my uninstalls and downloadings, an update in the game manager. I have already uninstalled, and will give it one last try.

Didn't work. I am trying to install the trial even though I already own the game. Going to glitches to see if they can help. BF Support was no help at all, they just kept telling me to create a new profile or get rid of the data folder, when I repeatedly told them, I never even got into the game to create a profile in the first place.

Flo NS,

I had EXACTLY the same problems the day after I purchased. I finally uninstalled and dld the trial and after that I had no problems. It even had my profile on there and where I was when I went out of the game. It always showed as an activated game (since I already owned it). I hope the same worked for you.

Hi, Flo!

Today is the first time I have ever seen an update for "Woman in White", even though there have been others. If you uninstalled the game by clicking on the "trash can" icon in your Game Manager and then downloaded and reinstalled it, did you try launching the game from your Game Manager instead of clicking on your desktop icon? Have you updated your video and sound card drivers?

If all else fails, contact BFG Customer Service again because I've always found them to be extremely helpful.

Susan

I have tried 10 way to sunday to get this game to play, nothing worked, not even BF support.

It has to be a compatability thing, and I'm just not going to get it to work.

There is something in this particular game, that just won't work with what I have in my system.

Thanks anyway.

I was quite far in the game... just past the cemetery and quit for the day. The next day there was an upgrade notice on my game manager so I clicked it and now I can't move out of the house at all. There is nothing to be done in any of the rooms but it won't let me past the front steps... I can't finish the game!!!!

The same thing happened to me even before the upgrade. I hoped the upgrade would ftx it, but it didn't. I can't finish it either.

I'm sick over this... I was really enjoying this game... best one in ages. I was 3/4 of the way through and there is no way I'm going to start it again with another name and go that far JUST to see if it works now.

The only way I managed to actually finish this game was to restart, with a new profile each time, 8 blessed times. And, I deleted all my save files, each time, too.

Even if there hadn't been any bugs, the game was just okay. The minigames were all numbingly easy, IMO...except that arcade style fishing game. That one was just game innapropriate, annoying and poorly executed.

@ JennyP...er, kinda sorta, but not in a masterful way.

@NYLady, you're going to have to delete all your save files and start as if you've never played the game.

connie and NYLady:

I uninstalled and reinstalled (by dld trial) and just now finished the game. I love this game, even with all the problems, it was worth the trouble.
By the way, starting over again with a new profile wasn't as much of a pain as I thought it would be and it went fast. So, don't give up!!!! Woohoo! rah

I worked with Big Fish to solve the problem. It's a great game.

I found the saved game, deleted it. When you delete the game from the game manager it doesn't remove your saved games.

Thanks for listening to my frustrated rants.

Find your profile, most games have a place to click to create a new player, you don't necessarily have to delete your first self but if you want to you can also do that when you create another name.

It will either have a Profile/Player option in your menu, or under your name before you begin to play it will say something (not you or if this is not you) then you click there to create another profile.

I can't get into the game so I don't know what it looks like.

Hope this helps.
