What did you do before it stopped working? Or did the game crash?
I just thought about something else, maybe the save is broken.
Move all saves out of the save game folder and try again. The saves are here: my documents\pcm13\users\your name\database\solo\name of db\
If the game works, then you can continue your career by copying the latest file from the weeklysave folder to your save game folder, then load it in the game.

It was working fine after I first installed it for like 3 months but then I didn't play for a while. When I then decided to play again it didn't work?
Tried moving the files out of the solo folder and no diffenece.
Have you got any other ideas.
Also should I put my saved games back into the solo folder.
Thanks

You could put them back but my next suggestion is to delete everything related to the game, so you might want to wait with putting them back until after the game works again.

Here is how to make it visible:
Open the Folder Options by clicking the Start button and click Control Panel.
On the Control Panel, click Appearance and Personalization and click Folder Options.
On the Folder Options, click on the View tab.
Under the Advanced settings, click Show hidden files and folders and click Ok.
This is a hint from PCM11, so adapt the folder names if needed.

No still nothing?
When I click on it there is a second where it loads but then nothing happens and when I click on it again it says that the game is already running but isn't any where.

You don't need to de-activate the game during de-installation.

Reinstall the game without losing activation
If you want to reinstall the game without losing an activation, you only have to click on "cancel" when you are asked to de-activate your key. That way your key will remains in your registry. After the installation, do not re-activate the game. |

In this case the problem might not be caused by the game itself.
Sorry but I cannot think of other solutions and I cannot fix your computer.
You can always contact the official support in case you have not done that already. |

Do you run by any chance another programs like MSI afterburner, precision X, RivaTuner or something similar? or injectors like sweetfx?
Anyway when you click on Play does PCM.exe shows up in task manager? |
