The intro scene should run after you launch INTRO.EXE.
If it doesn't, maybe try rebooting your machine into DOS mode and running the executable from there?

Ok. Tried to run it in DOS. No file worked, except for intro.exe. I was given a choice of video, sound and control. After that - black screen. Any help?

VGA, Adlib, mouse for everyone. Then changed Adlib to Internal. Nothing.

This isn't normal.
My best guess is that the game doesn't like your hardware for some reason.

*sigh*
Please post details of your hardware setup.

What CPU, how much RAM, what graphics card etc... the basic hardware configuration of your machine.

since normal quest.exe works in windows. try running your "intro.exe" via dos commandline (in windows) and look if there s a message after your intro.exe crashes/doesnt start

To the_fifth_horseman

CPU - 400
RAM - 128
Graphic card - Riva TNT 2 64?
HD - 20 Gb
Audio - ESS 1968
Or something like this.

_r.u.s.s.

Rough translation from Russian: the program has performed an incorrect operation and will be closed.
I get this with all exe-s except for quest.exe. When I run quest.exe in Windows I don't get to choose settings.

Let's see...
Most of it checks out as allright.
Is your graphics card AGP or PCI? Do you have a spare older PCI graphics card to try running the game with?
