Default Problem with Stop the Rock

Hello folks.

First post here, I'm having trouble running Bill Nye Stop the Rock. I try to install the game after mounting the ISO but it always fails when trying to install Quicktime. I can manage to run the application, but none of the quicktime movies play. Any help in solving this matter would be appreciated.

For reference my OS is 32 bit Windows 7.

And what would be this game?

Just a quick reply for now: if your quicktime required to see the videos is 16 bits you will never be able to make it run in a 64 bits version of Windows. That might be why it is not working.

IIRC the videos are 16 bit. My OS though is 32 bit. I suspect the videos won't load because it can't detect quicktime.

That was pretty much what I thought too but you should not have issues with 16 bits if your version is only 32 bits.

I am not sure I can actually help you on this since it is not really a problem which prevent your game to run. You would probably be better served by posting in a Windows 7 technical issue forum.

Other members here could be more helpful so it might be useful for you to hang around still.
