For users of Windows 98 and Windows ME only:

If you are unable to get into VMK because the game stops on a black screen, you may be missing a support file that is required for Windows 98/ME that they forgot to include when they updated to Macromedia Shockwave version 10.

Here's how you can fix it for WinME:
Extract the file QT3Asset.x32 from WIN_22.CAB, which is already on your 'puter in the folder C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\INSTALL.

Copy that file to the folder C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MACROMED\Shockwave 10\Xtras

If you can't extract that file (i.e. running Win 98), I'll attach it here. If you can't handle copying it to the correct folder, I'm afraid I can't help you :S

I have windows XP also and a dell computer.
tip: if your computer is slow try to limit your magic pins use. magic pins can cause disconnection

other detail
Macs may sometimes have this problem
i know this because my friend has a mac mini and she had a problem simalair to this
