Windows 8 does not like MM5.
I downloaded like normal. Tried to install. Got the message that windows was protecting me and wouldn't install. Got past that. Finally got the enter key screen. Entered the key. Clicked on the box that say launch MM5 from the install.
Machine froze. Froze to the point where I had to use the off button to get the machine back. Got the machine back.
Tried the Run as Administrator option. Machine froze again as bad as before. I did not try again. I didn't get an error message but I had the same problem when I tried to play Epic Quest of the 4 Crystals last week. I never did get it to work
but was not too concerned because I had other things going on. The message that I finally got from it was.
RGSS102E.DLL is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact you system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc000012f.
and then
RGSS102E.DLL is not a valid Win32 application
I don't know where to go from here.
