June 28, 200323 yr Have you tried making a shorcut and setting the shortcut to "Run in Windows 98 Compatiblity Mode"?
June 28, 200323 yr Author yeah, I tried all of the compatibility modes, its all the same Hoping for a emulator or something..But thx for trying anyway man!
June 29, 200323 yr Ok! I figured you probably had already...anyhow, I found a neat little site that has some useful information. it's called Dosgames.com This links to a section of the site with helpful hints pertaining to XP.
June 29, 200323 yr Author thanks for the link, gonna try it out ASAP..*update* *update* *update* *update* Yeah allright, so I tried it out.. Still the same problem, though I can play like 15 minutes or so now, but still, it sucks, I wanna play the game..Guess I just have to use vm ware to setup a virtual MS-DOS machine, that could work I think.. (?)
June 30, 200323 yr I used DOSBox for Ultimate DOOM under Windows XP. I've also used VDMSound in the past to play WarCraft 2 with sound under Windows 2000 (also works in XP).And if this is ok: Transport Tycoon Deluxe on Home of the Underdogs. (Windows version, works under XP with TTDPATCH).
July 2, 200323 yr Author I tried out dosbox, and TTD.. None of it works.. But, I found another solution!I went upstairs, and found my old PII 350 mhz!So now I'm gaming TT on win98 Anyways, Im still looking for a solution, cuz I WANT TO PLAY on my winxp machine.Thanks guys.
