This is a common problem seen in Sierra's adventures, not just limited to this game. I've experienced it in Quest for Glory II and King's Quest V. IMHO, I think you should do the quests in a different order. Do something else which triggers another sequence elsewhere before returning to the other appartments. I'm not sure of the speed factor though but I think the core should be set at normal and taper down the cycles to 4000 or less, depending on your actual machine. |

| fender178 | There are less files after the instillation. |

Do you happen to have more files installed this way? I am only half surprised. Old games who have both DOS and Win install options usually have different install files. |

| fender178 | Well here is something interesting. I installed the Windows version under windows 3.11 under dosbox and that worked no error msg. |

| fender178 | Ya Or maybe an Iso of the original cd. |

Installing directly from the original CD is your sure bet then!

| fender178 | No I dont have an original cd I just download the iso one member of the site was able to make for me. Im going to have an original cd soon though I just bought one. I should have it next week some time. |

If you have the original CD then I strongly suggest that you simply use DOSBox, mount your D: drive like a normal CDrom drive and then install the game. If you simply "purchased" a ripped version... Then I don't really need to search further to understand why it doesn't work. I am not sure I understand you fully anyways. Do you actually have an original CD? And then keep using DOSBox to play the game once it's installed, if possible. |

Try installing it under DOSBox. DOS things tend to work much better under DOSBox than XP (or, God forbid, Vista).
