Ooh! I know somthing for once! After installation, there is also a file name setup.exe that is installed. You run that and it will set up sound, video, keyboard, etc. as it does with most dos games.

Setup is NOT the same as install.

Kazer0: He already has, idiot.

Tommy: I'm not sure what your problem is... it works fine on my Win98SE. Can you launch from Setup? If so, try that and maybe it'll work. If not, re-install.

Use DOSBox to play it. I have that game and it works on my computer even in just plain old windows xp mode. With Dosbox you can hear the sound and the graphics will run smoothly too. It may also be that you downloaded a busted copy of the game. You can ask me and I will give you a working version of the game in a zip file if your sitll having this problem that is. It's a DOS full version and you will want to get DOSBox to play it with your windows version.

Hope that helps
