Hi everyone.
I've recently downloaded Zombie Wars from a website, but whenever I try to open the exe file .. the game window opens but only a black screen shows up!!..
I tried installing and running DosBox but it said that this game needs windows not DOS..
I tried all the compitibility modes but never worked.
** I'm running Windows Xp Sp3 btw.

Help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Zombie Wars will not run properly with Windows 2000, XP, and all later versions. It will run in 3.1, 95 and 98. Not 100% sure about ME.
Currently the simplest solution is running Windows 3.11 in DOSBox and then Zombie Wars in that.

Check this thread for a prebuilt Windows 3.11 package for DOSBox: http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=27770
