Having problems with AB classic version upgrade 2.00

I too am having problems with the AB update to version
2.00.
I'm on a PC and YES!! YES!! YES!! I'm having problems. It crashes as soon as the first bird in ANY of the AB games is released. Referring to the original classic Angry Birds and NOT Rio or Seasons. JUST the classic AB. And it happens in ANY of the games as I said. Contacted Rovio and was given a "work ticket" so we are trying to figure out what is wrong.

EVERYONE WHO IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS 2.00 UPGRADE SHOULD CONTACT ROVIO [WWW.ROVIO.COM]. As of my contacting them, they had not heard of any issues with the new version 2.00 upgrade.

Also, before the upgrade to 2.00, I never had any problems. WHAH!!! I want my Angry Birds back!!

I think I may have found the problem to the crashing of Angry Birds 2.00 upgrade:
Oh, BTW, there are many folks on several forums complaining about the 2.00 version upgrade.

But here's a solution I came upon just through "guess work" and brainstorming. When in "full screen" mode is when it crashes. I switched to "window mode" and Ta Ta!!!!! no more problems!! I didn't test every game but tested several and kept firing the birds and hey, the problem has been eliminated. You could pass this on to folks if there have been any other individuals complaining. Just make this suggestion to them, don't use full screen but switch to window mode. Concerning the PC only but could resolve other formats too.

Hardware: 24" Acer monitor. AB is set at 1024 x 600. This info is in the config file. I set the full screen = false so it doesn't go into full screen on its own.

Hope this helps,

Thanks again and Happy New Year!!
