Terror Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Can you explain better what problem that it gives? Does it give an error report? or does the game startup and then suddenly go to desktop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister.G Posted October 13, 2003 Author Share Posted October 13, 2003 it sais that its not sure if he finds all the files of the game.then it seems that its working but it quit immediately.Its a MS-DOS file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Where did you install it from? A cd, or floppy's? Make sure you extracted it right so that the right files are in the right place. I have dune2 too, i could send it to you too so you can extract it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terror Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 how did you extract? Did you run winzip and just threw all files in one folder? Or did you use the "extract to" option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terror Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 ofcourse you can setup it. Just try no sound at first (as on my comp it only worked if i put sound off due to lack of external memory) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister.G Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 Will I be able to change it later ?If yes,for what ?i have creative 128 sound card, what should i pick ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Well, you could ofcourse try no sound. But then normally you should choose soundblaster (don't remember if it also asks you for sound blaster ports, but those are generally automatically found.and yes you can change it later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyarlathotep Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 When you start up your PC, you can press F8 a few times after the memory is counted. It should provide you with a few boot options. Starting up in MS-DOS should be one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
