I recently recieved Populous II and installed it on my Win 98 machine. When I execute the game by typing "go" at the command prompt it proceeds to play the intro, but I have no mouse functions and if I hit ANY key on the keyboard it closes the intro and sends me back to the command prompt and looks like:


c:\pop2 /ss /l
expanded memory not found

c:\pop2\

c:\pop2\


I have very little experience with dos or changing config.sys, autoexec.bat, and msdos.sys I have tried a couple of things but none seem to make a difference. I look forward to anyhelp you maybe able to give.

TIA

Look here at the quoted guide at the end of the second post.

Even if it doesn't help you, that's common knowledge which will probably be usefull for you.

Best way to solve your problem is a boot disk.Just grab our bootdisk here, also get the drivers for your soundcard here, and restart with the diskette in the drive.Now just type ''cd pop2'' and then type ''go''
The game should be working now k:
