Okay guys, here's what I did to get it to work. I then uninstalled it and reinstalled it to doublecheck. This should work on newer machines with windows xp.

Dled the cd version of the game and burned it to a cd just to make things easier. If you don't wanna do that just remember where you unzipped the game to as this will be your "cd"

Installed the game. When it starts asking you about your sound card click no and cancel out of that.

Open dosbox, create a new profile for your game. Make malcom.bat your game exe and setup your setup.exe

For mounting click auto once and then click add.

Change drive to cd-rom and click browse and choose the cd with the game or the folder you're using as your "cd"

Go through and finish the profile.

Right click the name and choose run setup. You should get past the infamous benchmarking problem. Once that exits out double click and it SHOULD be working.

Sorry if someone answered this already but that's how I got it to work.

This is one of my favorite games. Ive played it many times.
But there is something i never got.

On the back of the cover of the box, you see this:



That screenshot in the upper right corner, that i have never seen in the game.
Have any of you ever seen it/tried it????

I always thought it was a cancelled cinematics, that only was used in the BETA-version or something!
Any thoughts???

Also the screenshot in the lower left corner...... have anyone tried that?? Because i sure havent.

It can all be seen here:

There is a cutscene that was made for this game, that i never experienced in the game. I know they exist from the back of the game.

Look at it, i have underlined them:



Do any of you know were in the game it is from? Was it from an altenate ending? Was it from the BETA-version? Was it from a secret place in the game?

'Please just give me just a little piece of info.
Because i have been wandering about this for years.

Inside the toy factory there´s a hole. When you jump in, you get to the cellar. On the right side there´s a stream. To get the eel you have to build a fishing rod. Therefore use a nut on a string on a bent nail. Then, use the fishing rod on the stream.
