I can't play the game! When I try to double-click the PCM icon, the game goes to the black screen and the red mouse, then I get a message where it says that PCM has stopped working and the game quit itself! One of the Admins at the Norwegian PCM site told me to patch the game, but when I'm trying to do that I get this message:
So my game is not working I think.. Anybody who can help me?
Sorry for bad English, I'm Norwegian
Feil = Error btw..

Are you using Vista? If so then that may be the problem.

Ok, thanks, I'm gonna try all your advices
EDIT: When I did that XP thing, I get to the black screen and the red mouse and then it quit itself. And with the patch it says that the files are corrupted, just like it did with the other patch! I guess my PC don't want me to play my favourite game!

Did you download 1.0.2.0 and try that patch?
Because i think the patch error is a incomplete/Bad/screwed up download.
Try downloding the patch to a different place on your computer then try installing it again |

uninstall the game then
delete the Pro Cycling Manager-folder which is hidden. The hidden folder is named "Application Data" and is located in C:\Documents and Settings\Your Username. Make sure you can see hidden folders. In the directory, click "Tools" and choose "Folder Options". Click "Show" and set a fly's leg in the "Show hidden folders"-text. "Application Data" will now show up. Inside that folders, there's a Pro Cycling Manager 2007-folder. Delete it.
Also, make sure everything else PCM-related is deleted. Go to Program Files and check if there's a Cyanide folder. If there is, delete it. Go to your documents folder and delete the Pro Cycling Manager-folder.
Now install the game again, patch it up and try again, if that don't work then nothing can solve what Vista does to the game (oh and the 2nd paragraph was courtesy of Crue)
