problems uninstalling?
If you are having problems uninstalling the game, follow these steps:
1. Look for the directory where the game is installed, usually somewhere
in c:\program files\funkitron or c:\program files\"the site you bought it
from".
2. When you find the directory that has the game, look in it and find for
a program unwise.exe. Run (double click) this to uninstall the game.
spyware
Is the game minimizing itself for some reason? Are you having other
strange problems? It may be Spyware.
Spyware, or programs that install themselves without you knowing it, have
become a real problem lately. Frequently, if your machine is acting slower
than usual, or just generally acting weird, it may because of one or many of
these programs running in the background messing things up. We have found
out that Microsoft's new AntiSpyware program to be really good at getting
rid of these things.
You can get it here:
Microsoft® Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) on the
www.microsoft.com web site.
Download it, Install it, and Run it. It will help make sure your machine
is not "infected".

LAPTOP ISSUES
Some particular Laptop with Radeon Mobility graphic chips may have a problem
running SCRABBLE and SCRABBLE Blast in that they "time out" after around 20
minutes of play. There are two ways to get around this:
1. Try running the game in windowed mode and not full screen. This should fix
the problem. To change the display, select the options button and
selected the window, then hit okay.
2. Update your drivers for your Radeon Mobility graphic chip. You can find
updated drivers at your laptop's manufacture's website.

"Original.Lexicon.daw"
4. Rename the dictionary you would like to use to "Lexicon.daw"

another one, just rename which ever one you would like to use "Lexicon.daw"
