Hi,
I need help from you good folks out there! I am unable to make Aces of the Deep run under WinXP. I just bought it on Ebay and I have GREAT memories of playing it...
First, my computer specs:
Motherboard ASUS P4S333
Processor Pentium 4 2.0 GHz
512MB DDR 333Mhz RAM
PNY Geforce 4 4200Ti 128MB AGP8x
Creative Sound Blaster Live
WinXP Professional fully updated
Aces of the Deep CD for DOS 5.0+ (and I installed patch 1.2, but it did not run without the patch too, anyway)
Description of problem: The game just won't run, I already tried setting all .EXE files in the game directory to compatibilty mode to Win95 AND 256 colors AND disabling visual themes. I also tried to run it with -s for no sound on the command line. A DOS windows appears and it keeps running with endless GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT messages.
I read in other posts that some people have been able to make AOD run under WinXP. So if anyone can help, please do so. I will be most grateful.
