Problem description:
I've tried to install Coktel Vision's game: "Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth" on my Windows ME system, but I don't get it to work properly. I'm running the game at 256 color mode and with a resolution of 640*480. I've also installed Microsoft WinG 1.0, because the game won't run without it.
When I try to run the game everything looks fine at first; the Sierra Logo pops up and the intro starts to play, but the game gets stuck all the time. The problem can occur anywhere in the intro, but also in the game itself. It only occured when there where spoken lines of text, but this could be just a coincidence, because there is a lot of spoken text. Today (while trying to run the game) I got a blue screen error with the following info: 0E: 0028 :C0030B66, I don't know what it means and a google search didn't help either.
Sometimes when I try to run the game, I get the following error message: "It miss 1200 Kbytes of memory ! Some Visual or sound effects will not occur. Do you want to continue ?" My computer should have more than enough memory, but this error could be related and I don't know what causes it.
Things I've tried:
-I've closed all other programs that where running at the same time as the game, but the game still got stuck.
- I've tried to change the Winram size to 0 in the MDO.DEF, but I didn't notice any difference. There are a lot of other parameters in the file I don't understand. My MDO.DEF file looks like this:
NAME:WOODRUFF
EXEC:WOODRUFF
LINE:
LANG:LG_GB
GRAPH:VGA
MOUSE:YES
SOUNDN:
SOUND:ADLIB+BLASTER+MEDIA+NOSOUND+NOMDO
JOY:NO
CDROM:YES
RAM:2400
RAMHI:2400

PHARLAP:YES
