GOt mine to work fine. But loads of people have had trouble running, Seems it's pot luck as to what system you've got. I'm on Vista basic, I just downloaded it, Had to download Winrar to Extract it then ran Application and It worked.
Right Shit game though, How did this make money??

What error do you get PMK? missing .dll file?

Something about runtime requesting that the application be closed in an unusual way?????

go to page 10 post 95 - thats the fix.
also you need to extract it with winrar so i rebuilds the directory structure correctly,
Works a treat.

Funnily enough, I got two Jackpots within 50 quid - something that never happened when I punted them in the bingo hall. Typical.

Interesting way they set the thing up - seems like the executable is a virtual machine, inside which the fruit machine lives.

As above the ffdshow install fixed it for me ... much better than Jim

I managed a JP off £30 quid of credits from 5 reelkings although all the rest of play has been shitty wins and 1 reelking at best
