Hi,

I hope someone can help cuz i havent played this game in yonks and really wouldnt mind havin a go again!

I downloaded the game and have done nothing else except open the chaos overload link. A black screen then comes up with some menu stuff on top like file, edit, comm and help, but its just frozen no matter how long i leave it.

Is my pc incompatable with it (ie too new as seems to happen with lots of my older games) or am i meant to do somethin that i havent?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi² ,
Now you haven't told on WHAT OS you are, that would help give you a reasonable answer how to run those games.

Dosbox will be your destiny then.

More specific: Windows, 0.72, Win32 installer is the one you will need.

and what are your pc specs?

ilievich 07-10-2007 04:07 PM

um sorry to seem ignorant, all i can find is;

Microsoft Windows XP
Home Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 2

is that the info needed? or where else can i look, i just looked at system properties

Celeron ® CPU 2.60 GHz
2.59 GHz 496 MB of RAM

is that enough info?

_r.u.s.s. 07-10-2007 04:07 PM

well it should work=S

but anyways, did you try clicking File->New Game? what happened afterwards?

ilievich 07-10-2007 04:08 PM

the icon is a timeglass and it doesnt let me select any of the options.


_r.u.s.s. 07-10-2007 04:09 PM

that means the game is running, do you hear clicking sounds when you drag and drop mouse or randomly click on the black screen?

ilievich 07-10-2007 04:11 PM

no sounds or anything. also when i use task manager to close it down, it already shows as not responding before i even try and close it...
