I don't know if this'll help you, but to run something in compatibility mode in XP, you just have to right click on the exe file and go to properties. Then go the compatibility mode tab and click the checkbox... Trying it in 95 or 98 compatability mode might do something...

That's pretty weird... The only thing that I can think of is maybe you have more things running in the background. It might be adware, and if so you can download Ad-aware to fix that. If it's not adware, you can type "msconfig" into run, go to the startup tab, and see what all is running. Disabling some things (be careful what you disable, though) should speed up your PC...

I have the same problem as you do, but sadly no solution. It is the best (not that there's many of them) snowboarding game for the PC. I just installed the game and got that message once, but afterwards it worked for me. I have Win XP Pro, so that might make a difference. Sorry, you can't get it to work, but I can't get my USB gamepad to work with it... EA just needs to release a new, great snowboarding game for the PC...
