If you can’t do these things, you have your security settings on too high, and Windows is trying to prevent you from screwing-up your own computer. Click on the Read-Only checkbox until it’s clear. Right-click and go to the properties of the folder. Save that and find the folder that it’s in.

Set it to always play as Administrator (enter the password if necessary). For those of you having other issues, find the pinball.exe file. I keep it alive to play old games, but it’d be nice if I could play this on my regular computer with my 25″ WQHD (not that it matters with this game’s resolution) monitors. I still have a Windows XP computer in good shape – it’s a Dell Dimension 8250 with 1.5GB of 1066Mhz Rambus RDRAM, and a 3Ghz P4 with hyperthreading – totally topped-out. Not sure if messing with Wattman will help. Setting it to realtime makes it run smoother (mostly), but it goes crazy fast, like when you hit it with the flipper, and it becomes very prone to tilting, so no luck there. Raising the priority to above normal and high didn’t make much difference – maybe even worse on high. Restricting it to only 1 or 2 cores didn’t make any noticeable difference (I’m 99.9% sure it can only use a single core, anyway). I’ve tried playing with the priority and affinity. It ran much better when I only had an i5 and a 1GB Radeon 6950 video card.

No flags for me.ĭoes anyone know how to make it run smoothly on a fast machine on Windows 7? I’ve got an i7 overclocked to run at 4.1Ghz, and 4GB RX 580 video card. Also, I use Microsoft Security Essentials, and Spy Bot. Good luck to everybody who loves this game. My resolution is set at 1600×1200, 32bit. It is true that the Aero on Windows 7 can interfere with things, especially wallpaper and screen savers. I don’t want to ever lose this game again. I’m going to copy the file to another flash drive just in case this page gets taken down. I hope this stays available to all those who want it and find it. I can play these by myself, try to beat my own score. I’m 56, a female and this is the only game I like to play other than Keno & Super 8 Keno. They are ICONS now, basically a thing of the past unless you have a lot of money to buy one.

Thank you so much for making it the easiest install ever!. That gave me the idea to search using that name.

I did see the Pro Works flipper.cad file. I tried to recover it from the old.win file which was unsuccessful. I had since upgraded that computer to Win 7. It worked also, but somehow got deleted and the flash drive got stolen with all my others. One fell in my lap one day so I thought I would copy the game to a flash drive. Everybody I knew had upgraded to Vista or Windows 7. I have looked and looked since XP was no longer available. Thanks, not only for putting this out there, but for making it so easy even a near-computer-illiterate like me can do it. It just went straight to Start, so I dragged it to Games. Now, I try a vague search on a whim, find this site, and it’s so easy(although I think I clicked the wrong thing–sorta–since I never got Step 2.
I was resigned to Free Cell as my only choice when I wanted to zone out for a bit. I spent years wondering if there was something like it, but not knowing where to look, etc. When I realized the W7 they made me use to do so no longer had the game, I was severely bummed. Now, I’m still on that awful virtual desktop, but telecommuting from home. Some years ago, the head office made us all work on a crappy Citrix virtual desktop(w/almost all customizing features removed, ’cause, you know–we’re all children who’ll burn the place down if we’re allowed to pick our own color scheme they even took away the clock in the taskbar, saying, “What do they need that for?”).

Not having a pc at home, I too spent countless hours being paid on 3rd shift to get really good at Space Cadet. Good Lord, I really thought, being something of a Luddite, that I was probably the only one playing what I assumed everyone else thought was “the lame pinball game that Windows stuck in there as a selling point to non-gamers & parents”.
