Performance isn't an issue. The program not cleaning-up after itself is. No program I've ever run on this laptop has caused sound-related problems. I won't be changing OS just for a baseball SIM. Perhaps this is an indication that there are sound management issues to be looked at in the game. To validate the quality of these assessments, I'm a professional programmer and this is a very clean machine.
I can come up with work arounds myself - I'm giving you the information to fix the problems themselves [e.g. color-blindness has nothing to do with the design mistake of having white text on a lt gray background]. I think it is essential to:
a) add a function to delete a league into the opening screen
b) load the program properly even if there isn't a league
c) add an option to not even load a league at all upon startup
d) have the program verify that all teams games played are counted in the standings and stats (perhaps with a manual function that users could run, as opposed to automatically).
e) do more testing on the sound management
Btw - I read the System Requirements before downloading, using, then purchasing. It quite clearly says Pentium! with 32 megs RAM and 20 megs swap is the "bare-bones minimum". Perhaps this is a lie?
