Hi. I just found out about this program today, and I'm having a great deal of difficulty with it. Tends to happen when your not as pc savvy as other people are.
First off, I have it down (finally) to understanding most of wiki's help page for newbies (btw thanks for your hard work) but I am stuck on getting wiz7 to work on here.
Heres the deal (to try and help you help me)
Finally got the thing to work so far after entering the following
"mount c c:\oldgames"
"c:"
"cd dsavant"
Now by this time, it should obviously say "C:\DSAVANT>" right?
Well now I'm trying to do the exe thing, and it keeps either crashing or just not working. You know how you get those two little windows (but your more or less typing in the one?) well the one you don't type in started generating a list saying Write 0 to blah blah, and then the first box you type in, the very top line of text (set in the program, not my lines) goes blank and it just stays there. Nothing happens, it freezes up and if I go to click the "x" button, it gives me this error about not being able to read the files (and yes I checked my folder, it is not on read only) or it just closes and says nothing. That error message shows up 1/2 of the time.
I've been looking through the pages so far, and haven't seen anything like my problems working the program. Well, more like not having the same problems I'm having, and the answers given didn't seem to work for me.
Maybe its the case of it just not wanting to work, but then why would a fellow Wiz8 gamer send me to this site in false hopes? I doubt its that.
Please help me if you can, fellow gamers.... I've been trying to find a way of playing this game for over 10 years now (at least I think its been 10 years) and I'm so very heartbroken that I haven't been able to find one program to work (until hopefully today).
Just goes to show when you move around too much, how much you appreciate the simpler times of vegging out *laughs*
Is it I'm just too new (pc wise) to work this program or is it I'm not able to run it at all?
