When I try to start the program, it loads the splash screen, asks for registration info (which I will do when I get it working - currently I just clik on "Trial"), then starts to load. At the point where the main menu is supposed to come up, the game simply terminates.

I'm sure it has something to do with a config file somewhere (obviously), but I can't figure out which one. Like I said, I tried the method mentioned previously in this thread with no success.

Thanks for your help,
Scott

EDIT - I added a "paths" file as described above to c:\windows\profiles\scott\application data\sports interactive\ootp baseball 2007\data\config that consists of:

path_user_data
C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\OOTP Baseball 2007\data

....and I can get to the main menu screen, with a message saying "The user data folder can not be found. Please reinstall..."

I also tried pointing that file to C:\windows\profiles\scott\My Documents\Sports Interactive\OOTP Baseball 2007\data with no success.

So I'm not sure where I need to point that file to.
