I used to run Indy with a K6-2 and caches disabled (usually for audio detection). I'd lean towards general stability issues. Any problems with other titles?

hmmm... I haven’t ran into any other problems. Played a lot of Doom and Duke Nukem, also played thru Rise of the Dragon on this system.

also should note I’m trying to play the talkie edition off CD. I tested the floppy version and that seems to run fine.

I also tried DOTT talkie edition which seems to have the same engine as Fate of Atlantis and that locks up too.

maybe its the fact that these games basically play off cd. almost nothing gets installed to HD?

A couple of days someone posted a thread about Monkey Island talkie locking up and that was due to the mouse driver.

come to think of it, when I tested it in my other PC that worked, I was using keyboard only. I think you’re on to something! off to test....

*EDIT*
Yes without the mouse driver the game works perfectly! Looks like my problem is CTMOUSE 1.9.1 and others have had better luck with CTMOUSE 2.04A.

thanks so much for that info and link to the other thread. I’ve been at this for days 🤣.

to confirm for anybody else that may run into this problem in the future, CTMOUSE 2.04A has fixed my problem
