If you want to say to me that i should open the installed game, i did this 4 hours ago (i can't save in any of the games (installed or uninstalled))

I also can't save in Return to Ringworld.

I'm very sad. :cry:

There's nothing wrong with having an older computer (BTW: I'm from Slovenia - so I understand the spelling problems - and many people here use even older and weaker computers).

Maybe you should try DOSBox.

Do this:

1 - Download DOSBox (our site hosts a link to it HERE) - it's free.

2 - Install DOSBox.

3 - Extract the game archive (when you downloaded the game from the site).

4 - Make sure the unzipped folder is on your C: drive (and don't change the name).

5 - Run DOSBox.

6 - Type these commands:
- mount c: c:\ <press enter>
- c: <press enter>
- cd ring <press enter>
- ring <press enter>

Hope it works.

EDIT: Don't try to install the game - it's not necesary and it could change some settings you'll need.

After ~2 seconds from when I start DOSBox, it quits.
HELP.

Also, if i don't install the game, it says that ring.exe is not a valid Win32 application
I've got the problem with win32 at almost al games on Abandonia.

(I don't think my download is corrupted because i use a cable modem, which means that i don't use the phone for the internet connection)

It's a compatibility problem.
I'm not sure about Win98, but I know Win95 had the possibility to run it in dos mode. When you want to shut-down your computer does it give you the option to restart in MS-DOS mode?

yes, it does give me the option to restart in ms-dos

Great! This game was made for MS-DOS so it should run normaly there.

Restart the computer in MS-DOS.
Keep typing CD.. <press enter> (thats CD and two dots and then enter) untill you get only C:\ in the black screen.
Now type CD RING <press enter>
It should read C:\RING
Now type RING <press enter> and the game should start.

thanks, i'll try that.

Good night. :bye:

funny thing just happened....

i was playing the game, till it asked me for the code...

it said to look for it on page 16...

the point is that the activation code in the page has only through page 2 to 15....

:eeeeeh:

please help

Actually, I was wondering...is there any way of getting a pdf of the manual to this game so that we can play it if we don't have the actual manual? I googled it and to no avail. I really want to play more of this game, it's really quite interesting.
