Alright.
I first played this game years ago, and fell in love with it. I couldn't remember what it was called, so I did a Google search for "Old UFO game" or "Old UFO shareware game" and the first entry it came up with was X-Com.
Talk about fate, right?
Anyway, I've downloaded it, but I have display problems with the windows version--the game runs, but it constantly flashes "Display out of range" on the screen, and its proportions seem stretched. I can't see a good portion of the top part of the screen.
I've tried going to a patch site and downloading xcom1fix.exe and patch.dll but they won't work, gives me an error that says Couldn't Read Process Memory. The patch site says it gives that error if you're not using the Collector's Edition...
How do I fix my display mode? Anyone encounter this problem?
Any help would be much appreciated.
