Ok, so I've never been at THIS forum before, but the others seem to be gone. Anyway, I've been recently migrating to a new computer, and I came here mainly to find a solution to a problem I was having with petza on the new machine, but I fixed it already, so I guess I don't have to ask my question anymore. *shrug* Oh well. Game still crashes if my mouse goes over the wrong drop-down menu, but that's because ViaVoice (which I never used anyway) didn't install correctly. Kinda annoying, but... Guess I just have to be careful where my pointer goes. I like to take show pics of my pets (though I've never actually submitted them to any shows) and breed strange crazy mutants from WAY different downloaded breeds (shame on me XP). Anyway, I've got more old games to install, so I'll be back later.

Welcome to RKC! About the mouse cursor crashing, does it happen when the cursor goes on a pet that is half way inside the carry case? If so, that happens to me to. Just press the windows button on your key board and it should go back to the game.

Welcome, violetwhirlwind! @the drop down menu crashing, I wish I knew how to help I had a glitch where when I clicked something on the drop down menu a transparent version of that button stayed on my screen until I reset the laptop, wouldn't go away when I closed Petz 5. Lol, I sometimes like to make weird cross-breedz too, mainly with chickenz and catz. Here's a photo of Chicat (decided to name it that):

@ Amradel
I don't think so (but I'll have to test that sometime). It's usually over the ViaVoice drop-down options when it crashes. Also occasionally when over the "activate screensaver now" (the screensaver didn't even work on the old machine. It works now, but not from within the game) option. It gives me an error message (I forget what it says, atm) and the whole game crashes...I have to start it up again. Also, while most of petza now works, the profiles don't work. (But that's not a big deal, I just switch profile folders manually)

Hey and welcome! Hope you get everything sorted out - what if you reinstall?

Oops...forgot to post an update here. I got most things working, and it doesn't crash anymore. Slight problem with petza profiles not having a slider on the initial dialog, but that's not a big deal. I just disabled the profiles and am switching pets around folders manually, it works fine that way.
I still can't activate the screensaver from in-game, but it runs fine on it's own, and ViaVoice still doesn't work, but then, it never has, so no big deal there. But the crashing has stopped for the most part, so that's good.
I still have yet to test the russian blue breed, as it was corrupted on the old machine and caused crashing. But a re-download might fix that if it's still the case. I'll test that when I have time.
