First off, I'm not as familiar with the guts of my computer as I should be because its over 8 years old; while its been (repeatedly) updated, I don't have a nice and handy readout. All the data I have was accumulated from "My computer" properties and my (scattered) memories.
Motherboard - IIRC, AMD
Processor type and speed AMD, ~1.5 Ghz
Amount and type of RAM - 256
Video board w/ RAM amount and type - I have a Geforce 4; box doesn't contain proper details
Sound board - SCL3000 (Soundblaster Compatable)
Operating system - Win2K
Game name (and version, if applicable) - Xcom Apoc, Dos 1.0
Description of problem - While attempting to install, It tells me that I don't have enough buffers. (I have attempted to fix this by adding the approrpriate lines to config sys with sysedit, but to no avail...). ignoring this error, I attempt to continue install. I select my D drive (I have two; I have tried both) and for about 1/10 of a second see the input directory screen. Then the program crashes.
Reproducibility of problem - ALWAYS
Sound mode used - Windows, SoundFX, VDMSound
Video mode (Software, OpenGL, Direct3D, or Glide, and resolution) - DOS prompt defaults (dunno the resolution)
There are 10 types of people in the world:
Those that understand binary, and those that don't.
