DOS Games Discussion

Hi,

I am triyng to run Monkey Island 2 in a XP machine (AMD processor) and all i get is a black screen - no error message at all.

When running it from my other machine, an intel p3, it runs just ok.

any ideas?

No but i have the same problem, but i have a message bitching about the sound. I think Bill Gates is being evil to us, we like the old games, let them work why don't he.

Mine works fine on XP?
