I started up Fable and encountered an error from windows.... C:\DOCUME~1\Eric\LOCALS~1\Temp\fa2_appcompat.txt ... I uninstalled the game and reinstalled. The same thing came up. I'm now attempting to uninstall and then delete the program files folder and reinstall, but I'm bettign the same thing will happen... I'm wondering what the problem is, and why it is happening. II havn't played this game in almost a year and I have installed windows updates since then, and a variety of other things... Can anyone tell me how to fix it.

appcompat.txt is a file created when a problem has occured and is sending off an error report to microsoft. I think we should clean out your temp files for starters.

Hello Strikermed,

Had the same problem. Downloaded a driver fix from Creative, installed it, problem solved...
