Uninstall,
set regional settings (
see the FAQ for P3 on overflanderdfields.com) there's a section on setting that and it's similar anyway on some machines)
reboot,
re install.
Make sure CFS3 was patched to 3.1 before install for P2, and that you ran it once too before installing. Note re damage under 50 yards was fixed with CFS3.1 (this includes the exe which must be 3.1).
If it's Vista you need to make manager and shell.exe or cfs3.exe xp compatibility.
(P3 works fine with Vista/Win7).
Other than that I cannot offer any help on the free version P2 - too busy with P3 and P4 now. Hopefully the guys here can help if you still have problems.
