Cannot Start Because Another Instance of this Program is Already Running! - Solution

[Stumped]

This is really the most popular support questions asked by users. Though the solution of this error already exists at CricketGaming Forums but still I would like to post it separately because it's annoying to see people sending PMs to staff about this.

Most of the time this error occurs when your system is not compatible to run the Ashes Cricket 2009. You can view the system requirements Here. You can also download System Specification Checker from Downloads Centre to check your system requirements.

Another possible reason can be, your game is corrupted.

Now to solve these errors, you can follow the following steps:

• Change your GFX Card or upgrade your PC
• Un-install the game and re-install again from a original DVD
• You can also do this. Open Task Manager and then go to Processes TAB. Now, close all the processes titled "Cricket2009.exe". Now run the game again. Game will run this time if its just a small temp problem.

I am leaving this thread open so that you can post your comments and I can provide you solutions if possible. For all other Ashes Cricket 2009 running problems, please use the older thread.
