Issues fixed

Can't access the graphics and controls setup menu

The game, by default, sets up the Start Menu shortcut to go to the setup window as well.
Create a new shortcut[citation needed]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>.
  2. Right click Frogger2.exe and click Create a New Shortcut.
  3. Right click the new shortcut and select Properties on the drop down menu.
  4. In the target for the properties, add -c a the end of the very end of the target.
  5. Click Apply at the bottom of the properties window to save your changes.
Launching the shortcut should now lead you directly to the graphics setup menu.

Game Crashes On Launch

Run the game as an administrator[citation needed]
  1. Right click on <path-to-game>\Frogger2.exe and click Properties.
  2. Click on the Compatibility tab and check the "Compatibility mode" checkbox.
  3. Click Apply, then click OK.

Miscellaneous Graphical Issues

Use dgVoodoo 2[citation needed]
  1. Download dgVoodoo 2.
  2. Extract the x86 DLL files from the "MS" folder and place these files into the installation folder.
  3. Run Frogger 2.
Using dgVoodoo 2 will require Windows 7 or greater and a video card capable of DirectX 10.1 or greater.
