Problem with all the games
I have a netbook with intel 256 mb graphic card.Whenever I launch The Tales of Monkey Island first chapter the pop up box comes and I click on the launch game button.Nothing happens for a minute or two and then suddenly the black loading screen with skull and bones in circle comes up and then windows comes up with an error.I did update my DirectX.
Also Sam and Max Season two worked flawlessly on my netbook.But when I launch the Wallace and Gromit demo the loading screen comes with words steady on and windows comws with a DLL error.
And now whenever I try to start Sam and Max Season two it shows the same DLL error.Please help!!
Just wanted to tell you that Sam and Max Season Two also worked on my very old celeron computer with a sick Intel graphic card.And Wallace and Gromit worked on my dual core pc with a 128 mb graphic card,the only problem being that wallace was invisible in the video.
Please help because I cant even play Sam and Max now which used to run flawlessly.

The more the merrier.
DLL has encountered a error and needs to close.We are sorry for the inconvienence.
At the bottom are the two buttons of Send Error report and Dont Send.
ToMI doesnt come for a minute or two but Monkey Island101.exe is there in the processes.When the loading screen comes up I cant even see the mouse and then I open the task manager and it shows that monkey island is not respnding.
Then I end it and this error comes up
You chose to end the nonresponsive program,Telltale Games.
Underneath are the 2 buttons of Send Error Report and Dont Send.
I know that ToMI probably wont work on my PC but I want to run Sam and Max which used to run perfectly until I installed ToMI and W&G.
Does it specify which DLL has encountered an error?
Its just a normal windows error like how applications get an error like IE,firefox etc. except it does not state that Telltale Games or Sam and Max had an error or somethin,it just states DLL has error.
Hope you can understand me:)

Now click on the button that says "save all information".
It will prompt you to save a file. Save it where you can find it.
Then e.g. zip the file and attach it to a message.

Based on Will's post
If that doesn't help, I would try updating some drivers. Acer doesn't seem to offer recent versions, therefore you could try the official ones:
Audio: Realtek HDA
Video: Sadly there is no newer one from Intel
