PRISON ARCHITECT WON'T OPEN

[andresultan]

When I start prison architect, there is a black screen for a few seconds, it show "Chapter 1: Death Row" and then immediately shows the Introversion logo, followed by a text box saying that an error occurred and it closes. I have deleted my preference.txt but it still doesn't work. Here is my debug.txt:

I Run windows Vista so any information or options would be helpful

You would get more help if this was posted in the Developer forum. In interim I'd suggest updating your graphics drivers.

That means you either have not bought the game as you should have or you have forgotten to register it to your forum account.

To get access to the the Developer forum, you need to activate your forum account with your Prison Architect key.
