Okay I got it running, through many painstaking searches. Here is what I did (I am running XP btw)

I downloaded DosBox.
And the Daemon thing for mounting.
Plus http://members.home.nl/mabus/dfend.htm to manage my games.

I installed Savant by: Start > Run > h:\install h
H being the drive I mounted the iso image on. Say it were drive e: e:\install e

Now I've got a C:\Wiz-CD\7 Folder with a couple files in it.

Now I got mad at the iso thing so I W7 to C:\W7

I opened D-Fend, which RULES, and Went to Profile > Add With Wizard

This gives you open instructions on what to do.
I'm not sure that it makes any difference, but i KNOW you can run the game from the copied and pasted C:\W7 folder. Which is where I pointed to. Use Wizardry.bat as your game exe.

After opening the game, you can turn on the sound in the in-game options.

Alt-Enter to full screen it.

If this doesn't work or you get stuck, AIM: BwalkinBrian MSN: Spicolin@hotmail.com
I'll be more than happy to save you the 5 hours I spent getting it to work.

Oh and if you can't even get that far, like I couldnt... Say you get the dreaded MS-Dos cant do blah blah because of c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt

Use this to fix the 3 files, its a quick fix...

k:

how does one get past the 'go to page xxx in the manual and type in the word' part at startup?

I have an old computer so when I run this game through DOS Box it foes pretty slow so I decided to just run it normally. but it comes up with some sort of illegal operation error and tells me to consult the windows help. It didn't help. so in the error message I clicked details and it came up with this:
" The program tried to execute an invalid instruction.
Fault location 0000:01B4
Interrupts in service: None"
can anyone help me?

Looks good, but I hate jumping into plot-heavy games midway through a series.

Is it worth tracking down the earlier games just for the story, or are they not that important? I know the review says it carries on from 6, but what about 1-5?

You need not to play the older ones, but you definitely must play this one, because this is the best RPG I've ever played !!! k:

One of the most enjoyable RPG's Ive played. I never fell for the story, probably because I've never tried Wizardry 6, but the character creation and levelling is brilliant. I think they have an interesting approach to combating as well.

As far as i remember, wizardry 6 was not that different...
ok, graphics & sounds are much more "modern" in w7, but basically the gameplay
remained the same...and of course, a different story.

Is Wizardry 6 available anywhere? Would love to get my hands on it and try it out!

for all those getting the cannot find error:

in Dosbox you mount your image drive (eg on mine I) as "mount I I:\" (no quotes)
and again "Mount C C:\" (again no quotes) now the game will start ok!

Hi guys :bye: ,

I played W7 on my old 386 some time ago, and it was my favourite rpg. Only the riddles were sometimes to irrational. Now I'm using DosBox, but I'm not getting good sound out of it :not_ok: : the door and monster sounds are quite bad!

Can somebody help? :help: All other games tried have proper sound on DosBox.

Thanx & cya
