Originally posted by acroig I spent about an hour with the game until it crashed to the desktop for no apparent reason. I've read others having this same problem. You mean it ran properly for an hour? I'm beginning to think that it might be easier to build a DOS machine with 6.22. It might...or it …

Originally posted by OGT aint no way to get it workin under win 2000 ??? Well, I know that it's one of the more "persnickety" titles out there. It doesn't work properly with any kind of memory manager (No XMS,EMS, etc...) Have you tried configuring it for "no sound" and just run the game's main …

Originally posted by mindglow The only trouble I have now is that whenever I move the cursor, it leaves a trail of garbage where I have moved it. This makes the game unplayable since you cant see anything after a while. The only thing I can think of off-the-top-of-my-head is that maybe your video …

Originally posted by acroig Ok, I'll try the original exe to see if I can get SVGA that way Argh! No! FORGET VESA (as in forget SVGA). That means running it in the lowest resolution possible. You need to get to the point of a properly functioning game first . Then, if successful, audio. Then, if …

Originally posted by Harekiet If you really wanna do it good, you should install some general midi emulation software in your vpc'ed... True, but I really don't need to run it in VPC, so I'm not too concerned. Besides, the audio performance in VPC is rather poor. Doesn't take much to overwhelm it. …

Originally posted by Jay A It then needed to install something called Runtime 1.1 for Windows, which it did. Actually, you should have cancelled that. It was installing "Video for Windows". That's Video for Windows 3.1, it's actually years older than the Video codec that is already installed in …

Originally posted by Jay A I've tried running it under both DOS and Win98 - neither seem to work. Well we need to break it down to a step-by-step process.
