- Maybe something here will help:

- If you downloaded the trial version, you can only play in the trial
room.

- If a patch is available, you will need that.

- FOREIGN VERSIONS

If you're running any version of the software or Windows other than US,
there can be registry problems:

Some foreign versions of games have a problem with the registry. The
Zone looks for the names PATH and FILE that list the folder the game is
stored in and the filename of the game. But the game writes PAD
(example) for the PATH. You can go to the manufacturer's website and
look for a patch for your language.
