Please can anybody help me?
I have just bought a new PC with WIN XP Home and I was trying to install a
game (PUZZ 3D Notre Dame) it seemed to install but when I try to run it I
get an error message "Unable to initialize Quicktime !".
I have tried running the program in various compatibility modes but with no
luck.
Can anyone help me to get this game running?

Is Quicktime installed? Did the game installation routine offer to
install it, but you refused? You can get Quicktime at:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
You just need the basic free version.


But, if your game requires Quicktime, I'll bet it's on the CD. Run
the installation routine again and see if it's offered. Or look for
a Quicktime folder on the CD.

Have you got Quicktime installed? Go to control panel and have a look
in add/remove programs. It should be listed there.
