Hi All,

PinballXLite works ok, but only runs the playfield, not the BG or DMD screens.
This update hasn't yet happened on my desktop, where PinballX still works. I've disabled updates for a month on that in the meantime.
I've downloaded Flash from a reputable download site to install, but the installer won't initialise - I assume it's been disabled in some manner.
Unfortunately, System Restore was not enabled, so other than reinstalling the original Windows and disabling updates, what other options are available?
I could also install W7 if there are no other options.
Cheers for any insight.
