I have windows 10 and thanks to the efforts of others I was able to install and run TW O8 in Windows 10 nicely. But the problem is when I double click on the desktop icon to start the game it starts with a black screen plus the EA Sports audio. The only way I can get the game video to play is to press alt+ctrl+delete and then the task manager window appears and I choose Cancel. THEN the video of the game appears. Crazy eh?? Anyway, is there and easier way to bypass the black screen at the startup of the game?

Hiya Delvanis, there is a NOINTRO tool for it, i never tried on Win10, but i think it will work on win10:

Right click TW08 icon you start the game with ( mostly on desktop), and choose: Properties
On top select: shortcut

And in box target you will have:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\bin\TW2008.exe"

Now change Target to:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\bin\TW2008.exe" /NOINTRO

So at the end add: {space}/NOINTRO

And hit: Apply


Note: when you don t have TW08 icon on desktop:
go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\bin

Inside bin folder: right click TW08 icon....and in list choose: Copy to......and choose: Desktop ( create shortcut )

It didn't work. A pop up said the address was not valid in the target box?This was after I added/NOINTO and clicked apply

Thank you. It works now. I didn't put a Space after the target address the first time I typed in /NOINTRO. It works fine now
