Dear all,

I have just installed Roller coaster Tycoon 3 on my Win 7 pc. But unfortunately its not running. I just get a blank screen with only my cursor visible.
It remains that way until I press enter or esc. Then it closes down and the "stopped working...." error appears and nothing happens further.

Please suggest.

thanks in advance

Try reinstalling DirectX and update all drivers

On an i3 config should not be a problem. Plus I've been playing it on win 7 so that also works. Try updating your drivers and install directx 9, I've found that some games need the dx9 files even though dx 11 and all are installed. You could just reinstall the game and let it install dx9 at the end.
