Tried checking their website for any potential fixes? There could be many things preventing it from running, can you even install the game correctly?How to run a Japanese Game on a XP Pro
I can run my japanese games perfectly, anyhting change since the last time you installed?
By reinstalled your PC I assume you mean you reformatted and added a clean version of XP Pro?
Most likely just forgot to update all of your drivers and such when you did a clean install.  
Most Japanese games use non-Unicode scripts that most english-speaking XP Pro users don%26#39;t have installed (and even if they do, they probably don%26#39;t have their copy of XP localized for Japanese applications.) These applications generally won%26#39;t launch at all if your regional input %26 language settings aren%26#39;t set to Japanese. The easiest way to get around this is to use Microsoft%26#39;s application [URL=http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/tools/apploc.mspx]AppLocale[/URL]. This utility allows you to run any given application in a number of different scripts/dialects. Japanese included.Install/Launch the wizard. It%26#39;s pretty straghtforward, just follow the steps. It should automatically detect the language needed when you select the application to use with it, but just incase it doesn%26#39;t, you should select [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/idolon/japanese.jpg[/IMG] for ''Japanese.'' Once you%26#39;re done with that, simply double-click the shortcut created by the wizard to launch the game, and it should work perfectly. Hope that helps. Though there could be a number of other problems causing the game not to run correctly. Post again if you%26#39;re still having problems.

Are Americans that ignorant to think the Internet, and videogames are written only in English?
i%26#39;m american and i wasn%26#39;t ignorant of that fact, i think my xp cd had a scratch and didn%26#39;t install the region properly or my processor overheated at that moment and seize up. Causing the data to corrupt
Lovely how only the ignorant Americans can make such an assumption. Those in the UK and Canada are too above to think such things.:roll:
