Trouble running on Windows XP, Jun 3 2002
By "jakeryan1985" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beauty The Beast Magic (CD-ROM)
I honestly liked this product; decent games, very nice graphics, and most importantly my 2 year old loved it. However, I could not get the sound to function properly; when it works at all it is choppy, cuts off words, and sometimes even sounds like a broken record. I thought of keeping the software but it the sound is just too annoying and you need it to play the games.
I believe the problem is that I'm running Windows XP, and since this Disney software is a few years old it does not run properly on XP. There's actually a disclaimer in the instructions saying they cannot guarantee compatibility on Windows 2000 (XP is based on Win 2000.) The manual mentions to update all drivers on your computer, all mine are brand new for XP.
For what it's worth, after exhausting the manual and the included product troubleshooting, I found a pretty good troubleshooting page on Disney's website at: http://asp.interactive.go.com/support/disney/index.asp

A Beauty or a Beast?, Jan 6 2001
By C. Crabb "eclectic eccentric" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beauty The Beast Magic (CD-ROM)
This is not one of the better Disney programs. It's charming at first, but gets old quite fast. There doesn't seem to be that many different things to do on it. It is fun, however, to make up a dance,arrange the music and hallway, and play the food game, but one can only do that so many times. You also rarely get to see the beast. I recommend this to those with a short attention span.

Has Wonderful Potential, Jan 24 2003
By Kathryn A. Closson "billandkathy2000" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beauty The Beast Magic (CD-ROM)
I have bought this game 3 different times. It would be wonderful, if it would work properly with XP. I originally thought the CD rom itself was damaged somehow, I really wish that had been the problem. DISNEY you need to spend the money and fix the game. I truly believe it would be worth your while. Until then, I would not buy this game. The sound is choppy and the picture is jerky. The sound is critical to playing the game. I was able to play through the entire game once on Windows 98. It was great, my daughter loved it and so did I. It is is shame they don't keep up with the times.
