i got it working 😀 the problem was that i didn't install the game, but copied it (already installed and unpacked) from archive cd. previously i had it installed on c: drive and now on d: - modifying drive.cfg file to indicate proper drive letter solved the problem. now, the question is, which game to play first - albion or krondor:)
regards
ps. how to install vdmsound update? will copyin n' overwriting be enough?
