kompatibily mode + oder options Quote:
i had thesame problem. whenever i started the game in compatibily mode 95 or 98, i could save the game, but therefor it allways crashed. when i did not turn on compatibily mode, i could play, but i could not save. however, i think i found a (surprisingly simple) solution for this problem: i started the game in compatibily mode win 95 and also set the following settings in thesame window, where you activate compatibily mode: - start with 256 colors - resolution 640x480 - deaktivate visual designes - deaktivate desktop?????? (in german it is called "Desktopgestaltung") i also checked: "start program as administrator" maybe not all of those options are necessary, but now i could play for the first time the whole first oblinox mission without any crashes and furthermore i was able to save the game afterwards so i hope, i fixed the problem like this now |

The Fifth Horseman | No, there isn't. You need either a disc or a binary image of one. | |

Skywolf | I've been trying to get a virtual machine to work on my computer for years, but I can't get past the 'install windows' bit becuse I can never find my discs. Can anyone help? Isn't there just some sort of virtual machine that doesn't need a copy of windows? | |

... Or in Win7 be sure to put the game in your own user folders, or somewhere where you have full access rights ( D: partition, USB drive , whatever....) |

The Fifth Horseman | I'd suggest running the game in a virtual machine with Windows 95 or 98. | |
