Hi Kappy....
Are you using xp.....maybe you can try to make a windows xp restore point. you can restore your PC to a point before you had the problems. On link below you can read how to create restore point:

Hi I really think I am missing files in the game, I do not believe this has anything to do with XP, I have tried unistalling the caddie and the agusta course and then back again I have no idea where I was when this occured IF I uninstall the game itself will I loose all my progress in the game, that would suck for sure thanks |

When you can t solve the problem and you want to reinstall TW08 game, there is option to save your career: So you will not lose your progress
Before you uninstall game:
On desktop go to folder: My documents inside you will find folder: Tiger woods PGA tour 08 Right click folder (Tiger woods PGA tour 08)and choose: Copy Now go back to desktop and right click on desktop and choose: Paste. Now you created back up to save your career.
Now uninstall TW08 game....and reinstall TW08 game. When you reinstalled TW08.....play 1 hole on any course...and go back to desktop. On desktop go back to the saved folder (Tiger woods PGA tour 08)..and copy the folder and replace it in folder: My documents When you are asked to overwrite.....say yes. |

Hi Kappy.....try to do the XP restore point ( see post above ). Follow the instructions.....and look for restore point.( for example restore to last week ) When you did the restore point ( example: last week ).....you will also restore your TW08 game to last week. So when it was working last week.....it should work after restore. Also good idea to do a virusscan...... |

When you start TW game.....on main page you will see: Change profile... Inside you will find players list....you should find your custom player in list. |

Interesting....
It could have been the installer. not saying that it wasnt, but Im surprised since NO ONE has had this problem before. Hard for me to tell you to try installing a different course so that I can try and help find what happened. Accept my appolgy and please think of trying ot install some other course then Augusta. |

thank you Tru I got my game back on track, I did not have my whole profile back but my tiger challenge was back where I left off, I had zero attributes, I had to do something wrong with a file within the game, I will need to read threw the download instructions again, even when I installed 07 games form here, they kinda of ran jerky and slow I have a pentium 4, 1gb mem dual core processor,a decent vid card, I am almost ready for a new system, if you have any suggestions I am open, gunpower had helped me alot,very knowledgeable guy, you never know I may send a donation your way, not blaming the site at all, I just screw things up, I like the site, for a 50 year old guy. games are still fun. for sure, you guys are doing a great job, thanks again kappy |

Have you tried turning down the settings when you play custom courses. I can play stock courses full throttle but customs I have to turn some things down. |
