OK Winzip 1) Double click zip file to open it in Winzip 2) Click Actions menu, Select All 3) Click Actions menu, Extract 4) Type, or select a folder (remember where this is located!) Run Sierra from the folder |

I'm running in DosBox and the sound works fine if I run straight from the extracted zip but that's because DosBox emulates the sound card! Of course, you could always sacrifice the sound, that might help! |

INSTALL.EXE is used for selecting the sound etc? You have to play this game! (But if the world is against you, there are the other KQ originals and remakes for a last resort fix) k:

A few suggestions: 1.Try going into Dos. It might work better! 2.Have you tried downloading it again, just in case it was a bad download? 3.Make sure you have actually extracted the files. Sorry if I'm stating the obvious but in winzip or whatever you are using make sure you actually click on "extract files" or whatever it says so it is uncompressed into a new folder on your hard drive! Then go to that folder and run it from there. Do not run any of the install .exe's - the game does not need to be installed! |

Are you extracting them properly? Eg. Selecting the "Extract All" option, and not just running sierra.exe from inside Winzip by chance?.... Once extracted run: __INSTH.BAT Exit once it says press any key to continue GODIR.COM EXISTS.COM SPACE.COM Then do settings in INSTALL.EXE and try SIERRA.EXE Note: This is not the usual method of playing!!! You normally don't have to do any besides the install, but who knows.... try anything once

are you running in a windows 98 Dos Shell or are you running in full dos? It's more likely to work in ordinary dos than in a windows 98 shell! |
