I have been having a problem with the talkie versions of both Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis and monkey island talkie edition the games have a problem where they will sometimes freeze until you press f5 then exit the f5 menu then it will start working then it will freeze later and the same trick will work I also have a problem in monkey island 1 where the sound has static my computer is a hp d530 with a Pentium 4 running windows 98 se but I run the games in dos mode any help would be a great 😀

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is one of if not the most pickest game I play on vintage hardware. I've had Sound Cards cause the game not to run. I've had CPUs too fast make the game not run. I've even had the game constantly freeze after a few minutes of play because of the mouse driver I was using.

What hardware did you have the best luck with I was thinking of getting a older computer like a Pentium 3 or 2 but I don't know if that would help or not I'm using a vortex 2 card in my Pentium 4 computer if that helps
