hi folks!
i tried to install the game "Re-Loaded" by gremlin.
it is a DOS game originally, but there is a patch which "upgrades" the game to a native win 95 application.
the prob when trying to start the exe file in winXP (SP1) is:
when i doubleclick the exe, a msgbox appears saying something like "this is no valid win32 exe file" (sorry, bad translated from german 😈).
that sounded very odd to me. i had that patched version running quite fine in Win98SE...
since it doesn't even try to start, i think perhaps it has some non-standart header or some like that...
i browsed around in the exe file a bit: seems to me like it has been made with a compiler from watcom (found a lib (c) at least...)
of course "compatibility mode" woun't change anything... 😠
so, what to do know?
big thx in advance for any ideas and suggestions.
with best regards,
