Well :help:

I can't even understand how you can run WinXP on a 400MHz processor but anyway.

Dis you try it with dosbox???? Did you used the detroit.exe file???? which graphic-card do you use????

Some more informations. The onliest thing I can tell you now is to try it with dosbox and run the setup.exe and after that the detrot.exe

try it

read ya

Well...
lemme think...

check your DosBOX configurations. Maybe the cycles (speed of DosBOX) are too high or maybe the resolution. With your card I would prefer 640x480 or 800x600

Check this out

On my pc it works perfectly under XP and DosBOX

Don't use DOSBox with 400MHz processor.

You are stuck with VDMSound, so why don't you try to run it. To get VDMSound, go to Abandonia front page, and select Programs on the menu.
