Does anyone have this game anymore? I like it alot, but since getting a new computer, Compaq Presario 7000US, with Windows ME, I can't even get it to run!! Has anyone ever had this problem? It will install, but trying to run, it just sits there, double-clicking on the exe. does NOTHING!! I never had any luck with installing the Win95 version, must run it thru DOS. It is an unsupported game now, I know it was one of the games that never really took off, but I really enjoy it, hoping someone else does too, and can help.
Here is my machine specs;
Compaq Presario 7000US
1.2ghz Athlon CPU
128mb RAM
32mb Nvidia TNT2 (with updated drivers)
SoundBlaster 128PCI
Direct X 7
Windows ME
Thanks in advance.
I have it and it works fine on my HP 4550z(modified).
It worked on my old 486 when I ran win95 on it as well.
I might hazard a guess that your soundblaster 128 drivers might not be totally directx compliant. Sound cards seem to be a common culprit nowdays.
All the "General" series, star, fantasy, allied, pacific, and panzer work fine on my computers.
My 4550z is currently:
win 98se
directx 8
voodoo 3 3000 (your nvidia card is the other suspect)
celeron 466
192 meg of ram
oddball soundcard-56k modem combo card that came with the computer (yet it seems to work quite well with directx and soundblaster dos drivers)
I would try using a cheaper 16 bit soundblaster for a while and see if it works with that. If not that, then suspect that nvidia card.
thanks, John.
